Cluster analysis on earthquake data from USGS
Theoretical BackgroundIn some cases we would like to classify the events we have in our dataset based on their spatial location or on some other data. As an example we can return to the epidemiological scenario in which we want to determine if the spread of a certain disease is affected by the presence of a particular source of pollution. With th...

Organize a walk around London with R
The subtitle of this post can be “How to plot multiple elements on interactive web maps in R“.In this experiment I will show how to include multiple elements in interactive maps created using both plotGoogleMaps and leafletR. To complete the work presented here you would need the following packages: sp, raster, plotGoogleMaps and ...

Spatio-Temporal Kriging in R
PrefaceI am writing this post more for reminding to myself some theoretical background and the steps needed to perform spatio-temporal kriging in gstat. This month I had some free time to spend on small projects not specifically related to my primary occupation. I decided to spend some time trying to learn this technique since it may become usefu...

Wind Resource Assessment
This is an article we recently published on “Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews”. It starts with a thorough review of the methods used for wind resource assessment: from algorithms based on physical laws to other based on statistics, plus mixed methods.In the second part of the manuscript we present a method for wind resourc...

Learning R for Data Visualization [Video]
Last year Packt asked me to develop a video course to teach various techniques of data visualization in R. Since I love the idea of video courses and tutorials, and I also enjoy plotting data, I readily agreed.The result is this course, published last March, which I will briefly present below.The course is available here:https://www.p...

Combining ArcGIS and R – Clustering Toolbox
Last year at the ESRI User Conference in San Diego, there was an announcement of an initiative to bridge ArcGIS and R. This became reality I think early this year with R-Bridge.Basically, ESRI has created an R library that is able to communicate and exchange data between ArcGIS and R, so that we can create ArcGIS toolboxes using R scr...

Time Averages of NetCDF files from ECMWF in ArcGIS with R-Bridge
With this post I would like to talk again about R-Bridge, which allows a direct communication between ArcGIS and R.In the previous post, I presented a very simple application of R-Bridge where I built a toolbox to perform k-means clustering on point shapefiles. The purpose of that post was to explain the basics of the technology, but ...
