This is the second special issue on the topic of "implementation of Spatial Data Infrastructures (SDI) in transitional economies." In the introduction to the first special issue (Georgiadou, Bernard, & Sahay, 2006), we argued that the majority of SDI initiatives in developing countries are character
Three approaches to modelling spatial data in which simulation plays a vital role are described and illustrated with examples. The ยฎrst approach uses ยฏexible regression models, such as generalized additive models, together with locational covariates to ยฎt a surface to spatial data. We show how the b
