In this chapter, we introduced the topic of spatial statistics and described its basic characteristics. We also briefly reviewed the spatial statistics tools provided by ArcGIS Desktop. In later chapters, we will dive into these tools for a deeper understanding of the functionality they provide. In the next chapter, we'll examine the tools provided by the Measuring Geographic Distributions toolbox.

Overview of this book
Spatial statistics has the potential to provide insight that is not otherwise available through traditional GIS tools. This book is designed to introduce you to the use of spatial statistics so you can solve complex geographic analysis.
The book begins by introducing you to the many spatial statistics tools available in ArcGIS. You will learn how to analyze patterns, map clusters, and model spatial relationships with these tools. Further on, you will explore how to extend the spatial statistics tools currently available in ArcGIS, and use the R programming language to create custom tools in ArcGIS through the ArcGIS Bridge using real-world examples.
At the end of the book, you will be presented with two exciting case studies where you will be able to practically apply all your learning to analyze and gain insights into real estate data.
