It is a hybrid spatial model that combines the variable selection capabilities of stepwise regression methods with the predictive power of the Geographically Weighted Regression(GWR) model.The developed hybrid model follows a two-step approach where the stepwise variable selection method is applied first to identify the subset of predictors that have the most significant impact on the response variable, and then a GWR model is fitted using those selected variables for spatial prediction at test or unknown locations. For method details,see Leung, Y., Mei, C. L. and Zhang, W. X. (2000).<DOI:10.1068/a3162>.This hybrid spatial model aims to improve the accuracy and interpretability of GWR predictions by selecting a subset of relevant variables through a stepwise selection process.This approach is particularly useful for modeling spatially varying relationships and improving the accuracy of spatial predictions.
Work with and download road traffic casualty data from Great Britain. Enables access to the UK's official road safety statistics, STATS19'. Enables users to specify a download directory for the data, which can be set permanently by adding `STATS19_DOWNLOAD_DIRECTORY=/path/to/a/dir` to your `.Renviron` file, which can be opened with `usethis::edit_r_environ()`. The data is provided as a series of `.csv` files. This package downloads, reads-in and formats the data, making it suitable for analysis. See the stats19 vignette for details. Data available from 1979 to 2025. See the official data series at <https://www.data.gov.uk/dataset/cb7ae6f0-4be6-4935-9277-47e5ce24a11f/road-accidents-safety-data>. The package is described in a paper in the Journal of Open Source Software (Lovelace et al. 2019) <doi:10.21105/joss.01181>. See Gilardi et al. (2022) <doi:10.1111/rssa.12823>, Vidal-Tortosa et al. (2021) <doi:10.1016/j.jth.2021.101291>, Tait et al. (2023) <doi:10.1016/j.aap.2022.106895>, and León et al. (2025) <doi:10.18637/jss.v114.i09> for examples of how the data can be used for methodological and empirical research.
This package provides tools for transport planning with an emphasis on spatial transport data and non-motorized modes. The package was originally developed to support the Propensity to Cycle Tool', a publicly available strategic cycle network planning tool (Lovelace et al. 2017) <doi:10.5198/jtlu.2016.862>, but has since been extended to support public transport routing and accessibility analysis (Moreno-Monroy et al. 2017) <doi:10.1016/j.jtrangeo.2017.08.012> and routing with locally hosted routing engines such as OSRM (Lowans et al. 2023) <doi:10.1016/j.enconman.2023.117337>. The main functions are for creating and manipulating geographic "desire lines" from origin-destination (OD) data (building on the od package); calculating routes on the transport network locally and via interfaces to routing services such as <https://cyclestreets.net/> (Desjardins et al. 2021) <doi:10.1007/s11116-021-10197-1>; and calculating route segment attributes such as bearing. The package implements the travel flow aggregration method described in Morgan and Lovelace (2020) <doi:10.1177/2399808320942779> and the OD jittering method described in Lovelace et al. (2022) <doi:10.32866/001c.33873>. Further information on the package's aim and scope can be found in the vignettes and in a paper in the R Journal (Lovelace and Ellison 2018) <doi:10.32614/RJ-2018-053>, and in a paper outlining the landscape of open source software for geographic methods in transport planning (Lovelace, 2021) <doi:10.1007/s10109-020-00342-2>.
