Swedish Pines Point Pattern

Description

The data give the locations of pine saplings in a Swedish forest.

Usage

data(swedishpines)

Format

An object of class "ppp" representing the point pattern of tree locations in a rectangular plot 9.6 by 10 metres.

Cartesian coordinates are given in decimetres (multiples of 0.1 metre) rounded to the nearest decimetre. Type rescale(swedishpines) to get an equivalent dataset where the coordinates are expressed in metres.

See ppp.object for details of the format of a point pattern object.

Note

For previous analyses see Ripley (1981, pp. 172-175), Venables and Ripley (1997, p. 483), Baddeley and Turner (2000).
