Location info #

Site location information (site location info), if provided, is used to evaluate spatial autocorrelation in model residuals.

site location info:
    file: assets/uplands-data/ROMN/LIBI_GRKO_metrics_adjwt_20170414_forCSP.csv
    coordinate columns:
        - xcoord
        - ycoord

Here again, we point to the name of the file (file) and supply the names of the columns containing the spatial coordinates (coordinate columns). Note that proper residual analysis requires Cartesian coordinates. If the locations come directly from a geographic coordinate system, they’ll need to be transformed to a projected coordinate system.
