Hi all,

I have a question regarding matrices (produced using poy2nb in spdep).

I’m trying to produce an adjacency matrix from a GIS Polygon shapefile with about 500 individual polygons (queen or rook — it doesn’t really matter for now), but conditional on the value of the parent polygon.

For instance, if a polygon had an arbitrary value of 1, I want to return a list of all neighboring polygons that have a value of 2 or 3 (ie. ≠ 1). The same would go for a polygon with a value of 2 (ie. return all neighbors with a value of ≠ 2).

Is there a solution to this issue built into spdep, do I need to use a different package, or is it possible to accomplish this with a subsetting command?

No built-in solution, but to make progress a clear, reproducible example is essential, otherwise we're guessing what you want. For example, add a doctored variable to the eire or columbus data sets to show your needs. Do you want a glist including (1) all neighbours j with a value of x not equal to x[i], and excluding (0) all with x[j] == x[i]?

Roger


Thanks!

Rhys
