2017-01-27 Thread Paul Lantos
I am trying to figure out how to randomly jitter points within an overlying polygon structure. I can easily jitter the points themselves, but I would like this to be constrained by the boundaries of polygons containing the points. This isn't for visualization - I can do that easily enough in

ESRI / ArcGIS has moved beyond shapefiles too with the advent of geodatabases. In a GIS environment these are superior to shapefiles in many ways, and ESRI in its own training and help resources encourage geodatabases over shapefiles. As far as I've seen only SpaceStat has made itself

Hi, I'm trying to prepare data for FlexScan to use the flexible cluster scan statistic, and I'm having difficulty getting data in the right format. The problem seems to be in the creation of a neighbor matrix file. I've been using a point data source, creating thiessen polygons (in ArcGIS),

Hi, I'm trying to use the cluster analysis program Flexscan, which I gather is similar to Satscan but it computes irregular clusters. This program requires a polygon adjacency matrix (termed a 'matrix definition file'). The example they provide has a row for every polygon, and for each row
