Dear Kitty, What I usually do when I want to generate a spatially varying variable is to generate some points at random in the study area and then do a kernel smoothing on those points. The values of my variable at (x,y) are the values of the kernel smoothing at that point.
Hope this helps. Virgilio _______________________________________________ R-sig-Geo mailing list R-sig-Geo@stat.math.ethz.ch https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-sig-geo
