plot nearest neighbor links

headers Juan Tomas Sayago | 20 Jun 2012 20:23

check the example on spdep's help.

example(columbus)
coords <- coordinates(columbus)
col.knn <- knearneigh(coords, k=4)
plot(columbus, border="grey")
plot(knn2nb(col.knn), coords, add=TRUE)
title(main="K nearest neighbours, k = 4")
