distance_band_weights
Generate spatial weights for point data based on distance thresholds using GIS MCP Server. Define neighbors within a specified range and apply binary or inverse distance weights for geospatial analysis.
Instructions
Create a distance-based spatial weights (W) object from point data.
- data_path: path to point shapefile or GeoPackage
- threshold: distance threshold for neighbors (in CRS units, e.g., meters)
- binary: True for binary weights, False for inverse distance weights
- id_field: optional attribute name to use as observation IDs
