predictionOnAGrid(response, finalmodel, A_mat, spde, mesh,
  family = "binomial", raster_stack, nsamp, int.strategy,
  write_posterior = TRUE)

Arguments

response

A data frame containing the response data including number of positive cases (n_positive), number of individuals examined (examined), and point locations (longitude and latitude).

finalmodel

An object returned from the function findModelWithSmallestDIC.

A_mat

An observation/prediction weight matrix returned from makeMeshSPDE.

spde

An inla.spde2 model object for a Matern model returned from makeMeshSPDE,

mesh

A triangle mesh created based on initial point locations and returned from makeMeshSPDE.

family

A string indicating the likelihood family, Default: ‘binomial’.

raster_stack

A collection of RasterLayer objects with the same spatial extent and resolution.

nsamp

Number of samples to draw from an approximated posterior of a fitted model. Make nsamp >= 100 in order to compute mean, sd, IQR, and 95% CI of posterior samples.

int.strategy

Character. The integration strategy to use; one of ‘auto’, ‘ccd’, ‘grid’, ‘eb’ (empirical bayes), ‘user’ or ‘user.std’.

write_posterior

A logical argument indicating if posterior realizations are to be written into raster files, Default: TRUE.
