Thanks!

Laboralment m'han demanat una reconversió de "estadística" a "estadística espacial". He mirat tres manuals al respecte per a R. El més clar, amb diferència, el de la Paula Moraga

Moltes gràcies. Espere que et siga útil! 😊

This semester I taught Spatial Data Science with #rstats Students analyzed areal, geostatistical & point pattern data, creating fantastic projects on disease mapping 🗺️ air pollution 🏭 crime 🚨 & species modeling 🐾
