1.1 Overview
Spatial Point Pattern Analysis is the evaluation of the pattern or distribution, of a set of points on a surface. The point can be location of:
events such as crime, traffic accident and disease onset, or
business services (coffee and fastfood outlets) or facilities such as childcare and eldercare.
Using appropriate functions of spatstat, this In Class exercise aims to discover the spatial point processes of childecare centres in Singapore.
The specific questions we would like to answer are as follows:
are the childcare centres in Singapore randomly distributed throughout the country?
if the answer is not, then the next logical question is where are the locations with higher concentration of childcare centres?
1.2 Installing and Loading Packages
Firstly, the code below will check if pacman has been installed. If it has not been installed, R will download and install it, before activating it for use during this session.
Next, pacman assists us by helping us load R packages that we require, sf, tidyverse and tmap.
pacman::p_load(maptools, sf, raster, spatstat, tmap)1.3 Data Acquisition
The following public datasets are used:
| Dataset Name | Source |
|---|---|
| Master Plan 2014 Subzone Boundary (Web) (MP14_SUBZONE_WEB_PL.shp) | data.gov.sg |
| Pre-Schools Location (preschools-location.geojson) | data.gov.sg |
| Coastal Outline (CostalOutline.shp) | Prof Kam - SLA |
2 Spatial Data Wrangling
2.1 Importing Spatial Data
We will use st_read() of sf package to import the three geospatial datasets.

First, we will create a static map to get a general feel of the dataset.

Here, we do not see any anomalies, all the geospatial points are within the map’s context, which means that the reference system and coordinate values are referred to the similar spatial context.
We can also prepare a pin map (interactive) by using the code below
tmap_mode('view') +
tm_shape(childcare_sf) +
tm_dots(alph = 0.5, size = 0.01) +
tm_view(set.zoom.limits = c(11, 14))tmap mode set to interactive viewingFrom the interactive map above, we can see that tmap is ustilising the leaflet for R API, which allows us to interact, navigate, zoom and query each simple feature. Changing the background of the map is also possible.
By using alph = 0.5 it allows us to plot the dots. The setting will allow for dots to be translucent so that we can tell if
After setting the tmap_mode() to view we need to remember to switch it back to plot.
3 Geospatial Data Wrangling
3.1 Converting sf Dataframes to sp’s Spatial* Class
While simple feature data frame is gaining in popularity, many geospatial analysis packages still require the input geospatial data in sp’s Spatial* classes. We will convert the sf data frames to sp’s Spatial* Class below.
childcare <- as_Spatial(childcare_sf)
mpsz <- as_Spatial(mpsz_sf)
sg <- as_Spatial(sg_sf)Now, let’s view the information of the Spatial* classes below:

3.2 Converting the Spatial* Class into Generic sp Format
spstat requires the analytical data to be in ppp object form. As there is no direct method to convert Spatial* classes to ppp object, we need to convert the Spatial* classes into an intermediate Spatial object first.
Thecode below converts Spatial* Classes into generic sp objects
childcare_sp <- as(childcare, "SpatialPoints")
sg_sp <- as(sg, "SpatialPolygons")Next, we can check the sp object properties.
childcare_spclass : SpatialPoints

3.3 Converting the Generic sp Format into spatstat’s ppp Format
Now, we will use as.ppp() function of spatstat to convert the spatial data into spatstat’s ppp object format.
childcare_ppp <- as(childcare_sp, "ppp")
childcare_pppPlanar point pattern: 1545 points
window: rectangle = [11203.01, 45404.24] x [25667.6, 49300.88] unitsNow, let us plot childcare_ppp and examine the difference
plot(childcare_ppp)
We can take a quick look at the summary statistics of the newly created ppp object by using the code below:
summary(childcare_ppp)Planar point pattern: 1545 points
Average intensity 1.91145e-06 points per square unit
*Pattern contains duplicated points*
Coordinates are given to 3 decimal places
i.e. rounded to the nearest multiple of 0.001 units
Window: rectangle = [11203.01, 45404.24] x [25667.6, 49300.88] units
(34200 x 23630 units)
Window area = 808287000 square unitsNote the warning message about duplicates. The statistical methodology used for spatial points pattern processes is based largely on the assumption that processes are simple, that means that the points cannot be coincident.
3.4 Handling duplicated points
We can check the duplication in a ppp object using the code below
any(duplicated(childcare_ppp))[1] TRUETo count the number of coincident points, we can use the multiplicity() function as shown in the code chunk below.
multiplicity(childcare_ppp) 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16

1 1 1 1 1 1 2 1 1 If we want to know how many locations have more than one point event, we can use the code chunk below.
sum(multiplicity(childcare_ppp) > 1)[1] 128The output shows that there are 128 duplicated point events.
To view the locations of the duplicated point events, we can plot the childcare dataset by using the code chunk below.
tmap_mode('view')tmap mode set to interactive viewingtm_shape(childcare) +
tm_dots(alpha = 0.4,
size = 0.05)tmap_mode('plot')tmap mode set to plottingFrom the interactive map above, you can see that the duplicated points have points that are darker in color, as the transparency of 1 point has been set to an alpha of 0.4, two overlapping points will make it more opaque.
There are a few ways to overcome this problem:
Delete the duplicates. However, some useful point events will be lost
jittering. Adds small perturrbations to duplicate points so that they do not occupy the same exact space
Make each point “unique” and then attach duplicates of points to the patterns as marks, as attributes of the points. Then we can use analytical techniques that take into account the marks.
We use the second approach, jittering to manipulate the points below
childcare_ppp_jit <- rjitter(childcare_ppp,
retry = TRUE,
nsim = 1,
drop = TRUE)Now, let’s check the if there are still any duplicated points below
any(duplicated(childcare_ppp_jit))[1] FALSE3.5 Creating owin object
When analysing spatial point patterns, it is good practice to confine the analysis with a geographical area like Singapore boundary. In spatstat, an object called owin is specially designed to represent this polygonal region.
The code cunk below is used to convert the sg SpatialPolygon object into owin object of spatstat.
sg_owin <- as(sg_sp, "owin")The output object can be displayed by using plot() function.
plot(sg_owin)
and summary() function of Base R.

By using the code chunk below, we are able to extract childcare that is within the specific region to do our analysis later on.
childcare_pg_ppp = childcare_ppp_jit[pg_owin]
childcare_tm_ppp = childcare_ppp_jit[tm_owin]
childcare_ck_ppp = childcare_ppp_jit[ck_owin]
childcare_jw_ppp = childcare_ppp_jit[jw_owin]We use rescale() to transform the units of measurement from metre to kilometre
childcare_pg_ppp.km = rescale(childcare_pg_ppp, 1000, "km")
childcare_tm_ppp.km = rescale(childcare_tm_ppp, 1000, "km")
childcare_ck_ppp.km = rescale(childcare_ck_ppp, 1000, "km")
childcare_jw_ppp.km = rescale(childcare_jw_ppp, 1000, "km")Now, we will plot the four study areas and locations of childcare centres

4 Second-order Spatial Point Patterns Analysis
4.1 Analysing Spatial Point Process Using G-Function
The G function measures the distribution of distances from an arbitary event to its nearest event. Here, we will use G-function estimation (Gest()) and Monte Carlo simulation test (envelope()) to perform the analysis.
4.1.1 Choa Chu Kang Planning Area
4.1.1.1 Computing G-Function Estimation
The code below is used to compute G-function using Gest() of spatstat package.
G_CK = Gest(childcare_ck_ppp, correction = "border")
plot(G_CK, xlim=c(0,500))
4.1.1.2 Performing Complete Spatial Randomness Test
To confirm the observed spatial patterns above, we will conduct a hypothesis test. The hypothesis and test are shown below:
Ho = The distribution of childcare services at Choa Chu Kang are randomly distributed.
H1= The distribution of childcare services at Choa Chu Kang are not randomly distributed.
The null hypothesis will be rejected if p-value is smaller than alpha value of 0.001.
