Hi Are there any more efficient ways of calculating the neighbourhood object for large datasets?
I am trying to compute Moran I statistics for a very large data set (over 14,000 points). I have been using moran.test from the spdep package and everything works fine for a small data set (200 points). However, applying the same script to the whole dataset is taking days to compute (it so far has been going for 5 days and still no results). This is no surprise due to the number of computations required. I have found that calculating distances planar distances works much quicker but Great Circle distances are required.
