Automatic generation and selection of spatial predictors for Random Forest models fitted to spatially structured data. Spatial predictors are constructed from a distance matrix among training samples using Moran's Eigenvector Maps (MEMs; Dray, Legendre, and Peres-Neto 2006 <DOI:10.1016/j.ecolmodel.2006.02.015>) or the RFsp approach (Hengl et al. <DOI:10.7717/peerj.5518>). These predictors are used alongside user-supplied explanatory variables in Random Forest models. The package provides functions for model fitting, multicollinearity reduction, interaction identification, hyperparameter tuning, evaluation via spatial cross-validation, and result visualization using partial dependence and interaction plots. Model fitting relies on the 'ranger' package (Wright and Ziegler 2017 <DOI:10.18637/jss.v077.i01>).
