Module 5: Spatial Statistics

Above is the frequency distribution of temperatures observed throughout Western Europe.  Data was reported at weather stations (grey dots).  To gain an understanding of spatial statistics and the processes in which to analyze them in ArcMap, a frequency distribution can be used.  Further, such a distribution can be used to locate outliers.  Above there appears to be an outlier on the right-hand side.  Outliers may be censored (removed) or otherwise accounted for during analysis.
