Hello All, I’m not sure if this is the correct forum for this…but a colleague has asked a question I’d like to address.
This fellow wants to predict the location of archaeological sites based on factors such as soil type, proximity to a water source, slope, AND proximity to other archaeological sites.
On proposing such a predictive model he has been challenged with, “How are you going to deal with Spatial Autocorrelation”. We’re not sure why SA should be a problem since we are suggesting that spatial proximity is a factor in settlement location.
So, do we need to test for SA and why?
Thanks in advance, Kevin
