In this study, we present a collection of local models, termed geographically weighted (GW) models, which can be found within the GWmodel R package. A GW model suits situations when spatial data are poorly described by the global form, and for some regions the localized fit provides a better description. The approach uses a moving window weighting technique, where a collection of local models are estimated at target locations. Commonly, model parameters or outputs are mapped so that the nature… CONTINUE READING
