Dear Roger,

I tried with data frames instead of SPDF. I gave some details of names and class types of datasets. Grid data has 31204 rows (first row is column names) and 5 columns (Z,X,Y,V1,V2). Station data has 226 rows (first row is column names) and 6 columns (PREC,Z,X,Y,V1,V2). I gave an example about datasets below.

Please do try to read up on what is going on. Find out how variables may be treated as string not numeric on input, and converted into factors. Do report str() of the imported objects as I said last time. This will show if some numeric are really factors - this may happen for example if the locale thinks that ",", not "." is the decimal sign, or if there is any non-numeric character in a column. If need be put your data (or a subset with the same problem on a website and post the link. Please do try to use lm() and predict() on the lm output object to see whether the problem is reproduced there too.

Please also be aware that using GWR for prediction has no good basis anywhere for anything - and the standard errors should not be given any credibility. This is not what GWR is for at all.

Roger

And from the list Binbin lu send me a message, according to his advice I don't write "station$" term while performing gwr.sel and gwr functions. In this way gwr function has worked but gave a warning message. And when I plot the predicted precipitation values of the grid there are some negative values which should't be occur! It didn't calculate predicted errors also.

What do you mean with 'factor' and I don't know how to run the function under debug.

Thanks for your help.

Dear all,

I want to make GWR analysis to predict precipitation distribution
measured from 225 meteorological stations. I have three independent
variables (Z, V1, V2). I want to obtain predictions on the grid
dataset which has 31203 number of pixels. I gave some details about
my datasets below. While performing GWR, I get error message: "new
data matrix rows mismatch"

How can I solve that problem?

You need to provide the detailed output of traceback(), and probably
also run gwr() under debug() to see whether this is a data problem or
a code problem. Does gwr() work when predict=FALSE, and/or
predict=TRUE, se.fit=FALSE? The error message is generated when the
number of columns in the matrix of X variables is not the same in
data and and fit.points. Are the variables in both cases stored in
the same way? What do str(station.grid) and str(station) look like
before conversion to SPDF and after? Is one variable a factor in one
and numeric in the other? Running under debug() will let you check
what x and predx look like.

If this sounds hard, consider putting your data on a website and
posting the link.

Hope this helps,

Roger
