Hi Everyone,

I am trying to figure out the spatstat package for the first time and am having 
some trouble. Unfortunately, I can't post my data set but I'll hopefully post 
enough details for some help.

I want to model the intensity of a spatial point process using 2 covariates 
from my data. After reading through the documentation, I have successfully 
created 2 "ppp" objects. The first ppp object is a list of coordinates where 
people exist and the second is where people do not exist as follows:

> people_exist
 planar point pattern: 944 points 
window: rectangle = [73, 135] x [18, 54] units  
> people_empty
 planar point pattern: 2828 points 
window: rectangle = [73, 135] x [18, 54] units  
> 


Now, I also have observed values for two covariates, Z1 and Z2 for both the 944 
and 2828 points in dataframe form. Finally, following the documentation, I was 
able to create one quadrature Q, with 944 points and 2828 dummy points that 
correctly takes the points where we had an event (people_exist) and the points 
where we don't have an event (people_empty).

> people_quadrature
Quadrature scheme
944 data points,  2828 dummy points
Total weight  1098.64 

How do I use the Quadrature to model my intensity based off of those two 
covariates and an intercept term alpha? In mathematical terms, if \lambda is my 
intensity function, I want to estimate \lambda(s;b) = exp(alpha + b_1 * Z_1 + 
b_2 * Z_2).

Thank you for your help! I really appreciate it.

Kind regards,
Greg R.
