Space-Time Moran's I/Evidence
Method evidence record

Space-Time Moran's I

Space-Time Moran's I extends the classic Moran's I statistic into the spatiotemporal domain, measuring whether observations that are close in both space and time tend to be more similar than those that are distant. It detects clustering, dispersion, or randomness across a combined space-time weight matrix, making it a foundational tool in epidemiology, criminology, and environmental monitoring.
