ww_build_weights function

Build "listw" objects of spatial weights

These functions can be used for geographic or projected coordinate reference systems and expect 2D data.

ww_build_weights(x, wt = NULL, include_self = FALSE, ...)

Arguments

• x: Either an sf object or a "nb" neighbors list object. If an sf object, will be converted into a neighbors list via ww_build_neighbors().
• wt: Either a "listw" object (which will be returned unchanged), a function for creating a "listw" object from x, or NULL, in which case weights will be constructed via spdep::nb2listw().
• include_self: Include each region itself in its own list of neighbors?
• ...: Arguments passed to the weight constructing function.

Returns

A listw object.
