[R-sig-Geo] spatialpoints: each dot represents 100 individuals?

[rubenfcasal]

Alternatively, you might also consider data binning (implemented in 
several packages: KernSmooth, ks, sm, npsp ,...). This technique is 
commonly used in nonparametric statistics to reduce the computational 
time (see e.g. Wand, M. P. (1994), Fast Computation of Multivariate 
Kernel Estimators, Journal of Computational and Graphical Statistics, 3, 
433-445).

For instance, using the npsp package (maintained by me...), you could do 
something like this:

library(npsp)

bin <- binning(earthquakes[, c("lon", "lat")], nbin = c(50,50))

# ‘bin$binw’ will contain the binning weights (aggregations) at 
locations ‘coords(bin)’

simage(bin)

Additionally, you could estimate (nonparametrically) the spatial density:

h <- h.cv(bin, ncv = 2)$h

den <- np.den(bin, h = h)

plot(den, log = FALSE, main = 'Estimated density')

Best regards,

Ruben.
