Overview

About

Maintained by Stamatis KalogirouFirst published 2026-07-066 releasesCRAN page ↗

Implements a spatial extension of the random forest algorithm (Georganos et al. (2019) doi:10.1080/10106049.2019.1595177). Provides a Geographically Weighted Random Forest regression and a routine to find the optimal bandwidth (Georganos and Kalogirou (2022) doi:10.3390/ijgi11090471). A lightweight cross-validation helper for tuning the 'mtry' parameter of a random forest and a generator of synthetic spatial test data are also included. The package depends on 'ranger' as its single random-forest back-end.

Install

R (CRAN)Ubuntu (r2u)Fedora (COPR)openSUSE (OBS)

install.packages("SpatialML", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")

Installs the current CRAN release. Prebuilt binaries on Windows and macOS.

Release

# enable cranapt (r2u) if it is not already set up, then install
grep -rqs r2u.stat.illinois.edu /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ \
  || curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eddelbuettel/r2u/master/inst/scripts/add_cranapt_noble.sh | sudo bash
sudo apt install -y r-cran-spatialml

Fast Ubuntu binaries via r2u (no compilation). The cranapt setup runs once and is skipped when it is already enabled.

bspm (used by r2u) also needs make: sudo apt install make

# enable the iucar/cran COPR if it is not already present, then install
ls /etc/yum.repos.d/*iucar*cran*.repo >/dev/null 2>&1 \
  || sudo dnf copr enable -y iucar/cran
sudo dnf install -y R-CRAN-SpatialML

RPMs from the iucar/cran COPR, rebuilt from CRAN.

For install.packages() integration in R, also: sudo dnf install R-CoprManager

# add the autoCRAN OBS repo (Tumbleweed) if it is missing, then install
zypper -q lr | grep -qi autoCRAN \
  || sudo zypper addrepo https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/languages:/R:/autoCRAN/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/devel:languages:R:autoCRAN.repo
sudo zypper install -y R-SpatialML

RPMs auto-built from CRAN on openSUSE OBS (Tumbleweed).
