Abstract
A brief survey is made of the range of models and statistical techniques relevant to the analysis of spatial pattern, and more detailed discussion given to three specific classes of stochastic process in two dimensionsviz.(i) continuous processesX(r), (ii) point processesN(r), (iii) lattice processesXi. The appropriate theory for these classes of processes is indicated in Part I; and in Part II some examples of data are classified under these same three headings, and their statistical analysis discussed.Keywords
