title: 'Irescale: Calculate and Rectify Moran''s I'
version: 2.3.0
doi: 10.32614/CRAN.package.Irescale
abstract: Provides a scaling method to obtain a standardized Moran's I measure. Moran's
  I is a measure for the spatial autocorrelation of a data set, it gives a measure
  of similarity between data and its surrounding. The range of this value must be
  [-1,1], but this does not happen in practice. This package scale the Moran's I value
  and map it into the theoretical range of [-1,1]. Once the Moran's I value is rescaled,
  it facilitates the comparison between projects, for instance, a researcher can calculate
  Moran's I in a city in China, with a sample size of n1 and area of interest a1.
  Another researcher runs a similar experiment in a city in Mexico with different
  sample size, n2, and an area of interest a2. Due to the differences between the
  conditions, it is not possible to compare Moran's I in a straightforward way. In
  this version of the package, the spatial autocorrelation Moran's I is calculated
  as proposed in Chen(2013) <arXiv:1606.03658>.
