Opis

This book shows how to analyze spatial and spatial-temporal data. It focuses on key datasets and data analysis, using the open source software WinBUGS, R, and GeoDa. It examines a range of different spatial and spatial-temporal data modeling situations encountered in the social and economic sciences.
