商品描述
Geocomputation with R is for people who want to analyze, visualize and model geographic data with open source software. It is based on R, a statistical programming language that has powerful data processing, visualization, and geospatial capabilities. The book equips you with the knowledge and skills to tackle a wide range of issues manifested in geographic data, including those with scientific, societal, and environmental implications. This book will interest people from many backgrounds, especially Geographic Information Systems (GIS) users interested in applying their domain-specific knowledge in a powerful open source language for data science, and R users interested in extending their skills to handle spatial data.
The book is divided into three parts: (I) Foundations, aimed at getting you up-to-speed with geographic data in R, (II) extensions, which covers advanced techniques, and (III) applications to real-world problems. The chapters cover progressively more advanced topics, with early chapters providing strong foundations on which the later chapters build. Part I describes the nature of spatial datasets in R and methods for manipulating them. It also covers geographic data import/export and transforming coordinate reference systems. Part II represents methods that build on these foundations. It covers advanced map making (including web mapping), "bridges" to GIS, sharing reproducible code, and how to do cross-validation in the presence of spatial autocorrelation. Part III applies the knowledge gained to tackle real-world problems, including representing and modeling transport systems, finding optimal locations for stores or services, and ecological modeling. Exercises at the end of each chapter give you the skills needed to tackle a range of geospatial problems. Solutions for each chapter and supplementary materials providing extended examples are available at https: //geocompr.github.io/geocompkg/articles/.
Dr. Robin Lovelace is a University Academic Fellow at the University of Leeds, where he has taught R for geographic research over many years, with a focus on transport systems. Dr. Jakub Nowosad is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Geoinformation at the Adam Mickiewicz University in Poznan, where his focus is on the analysis of large datasets to understand environmental processes. Dr. Jannes Muenchow is a Postdoctoral Researcher in the GIScience Department at the University of Jena, where he develops and teaches a range of geographic methods, with a focus on ecological modeling, statistical geocomputing, and predictive mapping. All three are active developers and work on a number of R packages, including stplanr, sabre, and RQGIS.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
使用 R 進行地理計算 是為那些希望使用開源軟體分析、視覺化和建模地理數據的人而設。它基於 R,這是一種具有強大數據處理、視覺化和地理空間能力的統計編程語言。本書使您具備解決地理數據中出現的各種問題的知識和技能,包括具有科學、社會和環境影響的問題。本書將吸引來自多個背景的人,特別是對於希望在強大的開源數據科學語言中應用其領域專業知識的地理信息系統(GIS)用戶,以及希望擴展其技能以處理空間數據的 R 用戶。
本書分為三個部分:(I) 基礎,旨在幫助您熟悉 R 中的地理數據;(II) 擴展,涵蓋高級技術;(III) 應用於現實世界問題。各章節涵蓋逐漸更高級的主題,早期章節提供了後續章節所需的堅實基礎。第一部分描述了 R 中空間數據集的特性及其操作方法。它還涵蓋了地理數據的導入/導出和坐標參考系統的轉換。第二部分代表了建立在這些基礎上的方法。它涵蓋了高級地圖製作(包括網頁地圖)、與 GIS 的“橋接”、共享可重現的代碼,以及如何在存在空間自相關的情況下進行交叉驗證。第三部分將所獲得的知識應用於解決現實世界的問題,包括表示和建模交通系統、尋找商店或服務的最佳位置,以及生態建模。每章結尾的練習題提供了處理各種地理空間問題所需的技能。每章的解答和提供擴展範例的補充材料可在 https://geocompr.github.io/geocompkg/articles/ 獲得。
