Spatial data are often aggregated into spatial units and differences between spatial units can complicate the analysis of the data. One solution to this problem is spatial unit conversion, also called areal interpolation. Of the many areal interpolation methods proposed thus far, few method are...

Differences in spatial units among spatial data often complicate analyses. Spatial unit conversion, called areal interpolation, is often applied to address this problem. Of the many proposed areal interpolation methods, few consider spatial autocorrelation, which is the general property of...
