Spatially correlated birthweight data with artificial coordinates

Description

A simulated dataset containing geo-coded birthweight data with covariates. It is provided for exemplary applications of the functions within the EgoCor package.

Usage

birth

Format

A data frame with 903 rows and 8 variables:

x

x-coordinate given in Cartesian format in meters,

y

y-coordinate given in Cartesian format in meters,

birthweight

weight of the child in gram,

primiparous

binary: 1 = first child birth, 0 = not the first child birth,

datediff

difference between due date and birth,

bmi

BMI (body mass index) of the mother at the beginning of pregnancy,
