[R-sig-Geo] Error in Spatial lag model

[Miluji Sb]

I have a dataset as below (with NAs). I am trying to run a spatial lagged
model

##
E2_mod_pdssat <- as.data.frame(gcp_t_p[,c(2,3)])
names(E2_mod_pdssat) <- c("Lon", "Lat")
row.names(E2_mod_pdssat) <- NULL

coords_matrix  <- as.matrix(E2_mod_pdssat) # create coordinate matrix
IDs <- row.names(as(E2_mod_pdssat, "data.frame"))

spatial_knn2nb_obj <- knn2nb(knearneigh(coords_matrix, k=2, longlat=TRUE),
row.names=IDs)

# Now convert the nb to listw for use in spatial regression call.
# Spatial weights, illustrated with coding style "W" (row standardized)

spatial_knn2listw_obj <- nb2listw(spatial_knn2nb_obj, glist=NULL,
style="W",  zero.policy=TRUE)

E2_mod_pdssat_org_lon_lat <- E2_mod_pdssat_org[, c(2:3)] # The lon and lat
will be required
E2_mod_pdssat_org <- E2_mod_pdssat_org[, -c(2,3)]  # Remove the Lon, Lat
columns that are not required

E2_mod_pdssat_pdata_frame <- pdata.frame(E2_mod_pdssat_org) # Convert data
frame to pdata.frame

All goes well until here but when I try to convert the explanatory
variables in the pdata.frame to spatial lagged variables

E2_mod_pdssat_X_lagged <-
as.data.frame(cbind(slag(E2_mod_pdssat_pdata_frame$tmean, listw =
spatial_knn2listw_obj),
slag(E2_mod_pdssat_pdata_frame$tmeansq, listw = spatial_knn2listw_obj),
slag(E2_mod_pdssat_pdata_frame$pmean, listw = spatial_knn2listw_obj),
slag(E2_mod_pdssat_pdata_frame$pmeansq, listw = spatial_knn2listw_obj)))

I get the following error "Error in lag.listw(listw, xt) : object lengths
differ". What am I doing wrong? I have also tried removing the NAs with
complete.cases.

Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Sincerely,

Milu
