Zusammenfassung	Multiscale Moran's I extends the classic global Moran's I statistic by computing spatial autocorrelation across a series of distance lags or spatial scales. The resulting spatial correlogram reveals at which geographic scales clusters or dispersions of a variable exist, offering richer insight than a single summary statistic.	Moran's I is the standard global statistic for detecting spatial autocorrelation: whether nearby locations tend to share similar values. The index ranges from approximately −1 (perfect dispersion) through 0 (spatial randomness) to +1 (perfect clustering), allowing researchers to test whether a geographic pattern differs from complete spatial randomness with a single, interpretable number.
