STAT 696 Spatial Data Analysis Project


Due by Final Exam time (or earlier)

Having trouble finding a dataset? Here are some useful sources


Presentation of Project during last 2 class on May 5 and 10

Presentation 20 minutes (5-10 for presentaion, 10 for lab) and should include:


JP: Here are 2 files we will need:
  • matlab.mat
  • lab.m

    Objective:

    The objective of the project is to demonstrate and present spatial data analysis concepts from the class or literature to a problem or question of interest for a dataset of your choice. The project involves spatial data and a problem.

    Choice of Data:

    The data of your choice should be suitable for fitting a spatial model or a space-time model. Appropriate models include ordinary, universal, indicator, block or co- kriging. Models for spatial latice data, point processes, Markov Random Fields are also fine. Please consult me.

    The data should not have been analyzed before concerning the aspects you will be investigating.
