Geographically Weighted Regression

Welcome to the Geographically Weighted Regression website. GWR is a method of analysing spatially varying relationships. This usually involves fitting a model to predict the values of one variable (response or dependent variable) from a set of one or more independent (predictor) variables. Models with Gaussian, logistic or Poisson forms can be fitted.

You can find a convenient treatment in our book, Geographically Weighted Regression: the analysis of spatially varying relationships, or more detailed treatment in some of the references we have provided.
