1 CONTINUOUS SPATIAL DATA ANALSIS 1. Overview of Spatial Stochastic Processes The ke difference between continuous spatial data and point patterns is that there is now assumed to be a meaningful value, s (), at ever location, s, in the region of interest. For eample, s () might be the temperature at s or the level of air pollution at s. We shall consider a number of illustrative eamples in the net section. But before doing so, it is convenient to outline the basic analtical framework to be used throughout this part of the NOTEBOOK. If the region of interest is again denoted b, and if the value, () s, at each location, s is treated as a random variable, then the collection of random variables (1.1) { ( s): s } is designated as a spatial stochastic process on (also called a random field on ). It should be clear from the outset that such (uncountabl) infinite collections of random variables cannot be analzed in an meaningful wa without making a number of strong assumptions. We shall make these assumptions eplicit as we proceed. Observe net that there is a clear parallel between spatial stochastic processes and temporal stochastic processes, (1.2) { t ( ) : t T} where the set, T, is some continuous (possibl unbounded) interval of time. In man respects, the onl substantive difference between (1.1) and (1.2) is the dimension of the underling domain. Hence it is not surprising that most of the assumptions and analtical methods to be emploed here have their roots in time series analsis. One ke difference that should be mentioned here is that time is naturall ordered (from past to present to future ) whereas phsical space generall has no preferred directions. This will have a number of important consequences that will be discussed as we proceed. 1.1 Standard Notation The ke to studing infinite collections of random variables such as (1.1) is of course to take finite samples of ( s ) values, and attempt to draw inferences on the basis of this information. To do so, we shall emplo the following standard notation. For an given set of sample locations, { si : i 1,.., n} (as in Figure 1.1), let the random vector: s 1 sn 1 s 2 s n Fig.1.1. Sample Locations ESE 502 II.1-1 Ton E. Smith
2 NOTEBOOK FO SPATIAL DATA ANALSIS (1.1.1) ( s1) 1 : : ( sn) n represent the possible list of values that ma be observed at these locations. Note that (following standard matri conventions) we alwas take vectors to be column vectors unless otherwise stated. The second representation in (1.1.1) will usuall be used when the specific locations of these samples are not relevant. Note also that it is often more convenient to write vectors in transpose form as ( 1,.., n ), thus ielding a more compact in-line representation. Each possible realization, (1.1.2) 1 (,.., ) : 1 n n of the random vector,, then denotes a possible set of specific observations (such as the temperatures at each location i 1,.., n). Most of our analsis will focus on the means and variances of these random variables, as well as the covariances between them. Again, following standard notation we shall s, b usuall denote the mean of each random variable, i (1.1.3) Es ( ) ( s), i 1,.., n i i i so that the corresponding mean vector for is given b (1.1.4) E ( ) [ E ( 1),.., E ( n)] ( 1,.., n) Similarl, the variance of random variable, s i, can be denoted in a number of alternative was as: (1.1.5) var( ) E[( ) ] ( s ) i i i i i ii The last representation facilitates comparison with the covariance of two random s, as defined b variables, i s and j (1.1.6) cov[ ( s), ( s )] E[( )( )] i j i i j j ij The full matri of variances and covariances for the components of is then designated as the covariance matri for, and is written alternativel as ESE 502 II.1-2 Ton E. Smith
3 NOTEBOOK FO SPATIAL DATA ANALSIS (1.1.7) cov( 1, 1) cov( 1, n) 111n cov( ) cov(, ) cov(, ) n 1 n n n1 nn where b definition, cov(, ) var( ). i i i As we shall see below, spatial stochastic processes can be often be usefull studied in terms of these first and second moments (means and covariances). This is especiall true for the important case of multivariate normall distributed random vectors that will be discussed in some detail below. For the present, it suffices to sa that much of our effort to model spatial stochastic processes will focus on the structure of these means and covariances for finite samples. To do so, it is convenient to start with the following overall conceptual framework. 1.2 Basic Modeling Framework Essentiall all spatial statistical models that we shall consider start b decomposing the statistical variation of random variables, () s, into a deterministic trend term, () s, and a stochastic residual term, () s, as follows [see also Cressie (1993, p.113)]: (1.2.1) s () () s () s, s Here () s is almost alwas take to be the mean of s, () so that b definition, (1.2.2) () s () s () s E[()] s E[ ()] s () s E[ ( s)] 0, s Epressions (1.2.1) and (1.2.2) together constitute the basic modeling framework to be used throughout the analses to follow. It should be emphasized that this framework is simpl a convenient representation of s, ( ) and involves no substantive assumptions whatsoever. But it is nonetheless ver useful. In particular, since ( ) defines a deterministic function on, it often most appropriate to think of ( ) as a spatial trend function representing the tpical values of the given spatial stochastic process over all, i.e., the global structure of the -process. Similarl, since ( ) is b definition a spatial stochastic process on with mean identicall zero, it is useful to think of ( ) as a spatial residual process representing local variations about ( ), i.e., the local structure of the -process. ESE 502 II.1-3 Ton E. Smith
4 NOTEBOOK FO SPATIAL DATA ANALSIS 1.3 Spatial Modeling Strateg Within this framework, our basic modeling strateg will be to identif a spatial trend function, (), that fits the -process so well that the resulting residual process, (), is not statisticall distinguishable from random noise. However, from a practical viewpoint, the usual statistical model of such random effects as a collection of independent random variables, { ( s): s }, is somewhat too restrictive. In particular, since most spatial variables tend to ehibit some degree of continuit over space (such as average temperature or rainfall), one can epect these variables to ehibit similar values at locations close together in space. Moreover, since spatial residuals () s b definition consist of all unobserved spatial variables influencing s () that are not captured b the global trend, () s, one can also epect these residuals to ehibit similar values at locations close together in space. In statistical terms, this means that for locations, s and v, that are sufficientl close together, the associated residuals ( s) and ( v) will tend to ehibit positive statistical dependence. Thus, in constructing statistical models of spatial phenomena, it is essential to allow for such dependencies in the spatial residual process, { ( s): s }. Before proceeding, it is important to emphasize that our basic measure of the degree of dependenc between spatial residuals -- and indeed between an random variables and -- is in terms of their covariance, (1.3.1) cov(, ) E[( )( )] [as in epression (1.1.6) above]. To gain further insight into the meaning of covariance, observe that if cov(, ) is positive, then b definition, this means that the deviations and are epected to have the same sign (either positive or negative), so that tpical scatter plots of (, ) points will have a positive slope, as shown in the first panel of Figure 1.2 below. cov(, ) 0 cov(, ) 0 cov(, ) 0 Figure 1.2. Covariance elations ESE 502 II.1-4 Ton E. Smith
5 NOTEBOOK FO SPATIAL DATA ANALSIS Similarl, if cov(, ) is negative, then deviations and are epected to have the opposite signs, so that tpical scatter plots will have negative slopes, as in the middle panel of Figure 1.2. Finall, if cov(, ) is zero, then there is epected to be no relation between the signs of these deviations, so that tpical scatter plots will ehibit no directional tendencies at all, as in the final panel of Figure 1.2. In particular, positive dependencies among spatial residuals will thus tend to be reflected b positive covariance among these residuals. Given these initial observations, our basic strateg will be to start in Section 3 below b constructing an appropriate notion of spatiall-dependent random effects. While it ma seem strange to begin b focusing on the residual process, { ( s): s }, which simpl describes everthing left out of the model of interest, this notion of spatiall-dependent random noise will pla a fundamental role in all spatial statistical models to be developed. In particular, this will form the basis for our construction of covariance matrices [as in epression (1.1.7) above], which will effectivel summarize all spatial statistical relationships of interest. This will be followed in Section 4 with a development of a statistical tool for estimating covariance, known as a variogram. This will also provide a useful graphical device for summarizing spatiall-dependent random effects. Finall in Section 5 we begin b appling these tools to full spatial models as in (1.2.1) above. In the simplest of these models, it will be assumed that the spatial trend is constant [i.e., () s ] so that (1.2.1) reduces to 1 (1.3.2) s () () s, s As will be shown, this simple model is useful for stochastic spatial prediction, or kriging. In Section 6 we then begin to consider models in which the spatial trend () s varies over space, and in particular, dependents on possible eplanator variables, [ 1 ( s),..., k ( s ) ] associated with each location, s. But before launching into these details, it is useful to begin with a number of motivating eamples which serve to illustrate the tpes of spatial phenomena that can be modeled. 1 Note that the smbol means that () s is identicall equal to for all s.
