studyArea <- st_read(dsn="data",
                     layer="study_area") %>%
  st_transform(crs = 3829)

Reading layer `study_area' from data source

stores <- st_read(dsn="data",
                  layer = "stores") %>%
  st_transform(crs = 3829)

Reading layer `stores' from data source 
  `C:\Users\la935\Desktop\IS415 - GAA\IS415 - GAA (New)\In-Class_Ex\In-Class_Ex05\data' 
  using driver `ESRI Shapefile'

Visualising The SF Layers

tmap_mode("view")
tm_shape(studyArea) +
  tm_polygons() +
tm_shape(stores) +
  tm_dots(col = "Name",
          size = 0.01,
          border.col = "black",
          border.lwd = 0.5) +
  tm_view(set.zoom.limits = c(12, 16))

Local Colocation Quotients (LCLQ)

nb <- include_self(
  st_knn(st_geometry(stores), 6))

#Use even number to avoid 50/50 results

wt <- st_kernel_weights(nb,
                        stores,
                        "gaussian",
                        adaptive = TRUE)

#Higher the weight, the nearer the point

FamilyMart <- stores %>%
  filter(Name == "Family Mart")
A <- FamilyMart$Name

SevenEleven <- stores %>%
  filter(Name == "7-Eleven")
B <- SevenEleven$Name

LCLQ <- local_colocation(A, B, nb, wt, 49)

#Running 50 simulation

LCLQ_stores <- cbind(stores, LCLQ)

#cbind only works when the table structure is not changed (aka filter)
