Visualization of spatial and spatiotemporal data
To be able to use spatial data and make decisions based on it, we need to be able to visualize it (statically, interactively, through web etc).
Machine Learning for spatial data
Machine Learning Algorithms are increasingly interesting for analyzing spatial data, especially to derive spatial predictions / for spatial interpolation and to detect spatial patterns. Spatial aut
Spatial and Spatiotemporal Classes and Methods in R
Several R packages exists that allows loading spatial and spatiotemporal data and which provide structures, validity control and functions.
