Spatial Analysis Using R

This repository hosts scripts and information for the 'Spatial Analysis Using R' workshop at US-IALE 2018.

Instructions

In this repository, you will find three scripts and data for the workshop.

  1. Please bring your own device, preferably with R/RStudio installed.
  2. I have added sample data, which will be used during the workshop. Alternately, you are more than welcome to bring your own data and play around with it during the workshop.

Details

This workshop will cover the basics in spatial analysis within the R programming environment. Topics covered include basic spatial operations and storage of data, vector and raster manipulation, packages and functions that offer tools analogous to ones offered in QGIS/ArcGIS and basics of static mapping.

Basic knowledge of R and Spatial Analysis is required.

Caveat: By no means is this workshop meant to cover all possible types of spatial analyses within R, but the hope is to provide a glimpse of analyses possible. Further, this workshop is meant to cater to users with differing levels of experience in R and spatial analysis and is not meant to be for users with advanced experience in spatial analysis in R.
