520 |a R is a simple, effective, and comprehensive programming language and environment that is gaining ever-increasing popularity among data analysts. This book provides you with the necessary skills to successfully carry out complete geospatial data analyses, from data import to presentation of results. Learning R for Geospatial Analysis is composed of step-by-step tutorials, starting with the language basics before proceeding to cover the main GIS operations and data types. Visualization of spatial data is vital either during the various analysis steps and/or as the final product, and this book shows you how to get the most out of R's visualization capabilities. The book culminates with examples of cutting-edge applications utilizing R's strengths as a statistical and graphical tool.
