Synopsis

Assembling a collection of very prominent researchers in the field, the Handbook of Spatial Statistics presents a comprehensive treatment of both classical and state-of-the-art aspects of this maturing area. It takes a unified, integrated approach to the material, providing cross-references among chapters.

The handbook begins with a historical introduction detailing the evolution of the field. It then focuses on the three main branches of spatial statistics: continuous spatial variation (point referenced data); discrete spatial variation, including lattice and areal unit data; and spatial point patterns. The book also contains a section on space–time work as well as a section on important topics that build upon earlier chapters.

By collecting the major work in the field in one source, along with including an extensive bibliography, this handbook will assist future research efforts. It deftly balances theory and application, strongly emphasizes modeling, and introduces many real data analysis examples.

À propos de la quatrième de couverture

Based on the work of prominent researchers, this handbook provides broad, thorough coverage of this vibrant area, from historical to contemporary topics. It explores the modeling advances, computational approaches, and methodology that have emerged in recent years. The book focuses on continuous and discrete spatial variation, spatial point patterns, and spatio-temporal processes. It also covers multivariate spatial process models, spatial aggregation, spatial misalignment, and spatial gradients in depth. The theory and applications are illustrated with many real-world data examples.
