meuse.blocks is an object of the class
SpatialPolygonsDataFrame that contains the coordinates of 259
artificially defined by putting a grid with 150 m mesh width over the the
flood plain area of the river Meuse, near the village Stein. The 259 x 2
data frame contains the covariate dist
and the attribute M for each block.
Usage
data(meuse.blocks)
Format
The object contains the following slots:
polygons
an object of the class SpatialPolygons that contains the coordinates
of the 259 blocks
data
a 259 x 2 data frame contains:
dist
mean Euclidean distance of the blocks from the river, normalized to the interval [0;1]
M
the (spatial) variance of the mean distance between points, uniformly distributed within the blocks, and the river
