segdata: Hypothetical Patterns of Segregation

Description

This data set contains eight different spatial configurations that were used by Morrill (1991) and Wong (1993) to test their segregation measures.

Usage

data(segdata)

Format

An object of class data.frame. The data set contains 16 columns, representing eight idealised spatial patterns. Each column indicates the following information:

[,1]	A1	Pattern A, Group 1
[,2]	A2	Pattern A, Group 2
[,3]	B1	Pattern B, Group 1
[,4]	B2	Pattern B, Group 2
[,5]	C1	Pattern C, Group 1
[,6]	C2	Pattern C, Group 2
[,7]	D1	Pattern D, Group 1
[,8]	D2	Pattern D, Group 2
[,9]	E1	Pattern E, Group 1
[,10]	E2	Pattern E, Group 2
[,11]	F1	Pattern F, Group 1
[,12]	F2	Pattern F, Group 2
[,13]	G1	Pattern G, Group 1
[,14]	G2	Pattern G, Group 2
[,15]	H1	Pattern H, Group 1
