Exploratory Spatial Data Analysis Linking SpaceStat and ArcView

摘要: The extension of the functional capacity geographic information systems with tools for spatial analysis has been an increasingly active area research in recent years. Following Goodchild’s (1987) call to action [see also Goodchild (1992)], a growing number conferences and workshops devoted topic academic GIS community, resulting many articles several edited volumes [among others, Fischer Nijkamp (1993), Fotheringham Rogerson (1994), Painho Fischer, Scholten Unwin (1996)]. Among types analyses suitable inclusion within functionality GIS, data particular received considerable attention. Several conceptual frameworks have suggested, proposing different degrees linkages between analysis, outlining statistical techniques that would be most [examples are Openshaw (1991), Anselin Getis (1992), et al. Bailey Haining (1995)]. In broad terms, proposed can described as either tight vs. loose [Goodchild (1992)] or encompassing modular [Anselin depending on degree which module “traditional” integrated into single software environment.
