Summary

Geostatistics analyzes and predicts the values associated with spatial or spatio-temporal phenomena. It incorporates the spatial (and in some cases temporal) coordinates of the data within the analyses. It is a practical means of describing spatial patterns and interpolating values for locations where samples were not taken (and measures the uncertainty of those values, which is critical to informed decision making).

This update to the Zenodo archive (version 3) consists of two archives consisting of geostatistical analyses of SARS-CoV-2 testing data:

Archive #1: "1. Updated Geostatistical Analysis of SARS-CoV-2 in the United States (version 3 - July 17th 2020).zip" - a new set of results from geostatistical analyses performed against corrected COVID-19 case data (according to source-based errata documents) for the continental United States, spanning from March 24th through to July 13th 2020.

Archive #2: "2. Initial Geostatistical Analysis of SARS-CoV-2 in the United States (version 2 - first published June 15th, 2020).zip" - the results from the geostatistical analyses performed for version 2 of this Zenodo archive which analyzed COVID-19 case data prior to any case correction step.

These archives consist of map files (as both static images and as animations) and data files (including text files which contain the underlying data of said map files [where applicable]) which were generated when performing the following Geostatistical analyses: Hot Spot analysis (Getis-Ord Gi*), Cluster and Outlier analysis (Anselin Local Moran's I), and Spatial Autocorrelation (Global Moran's I).  Note that the older archive also provides analytics that are not yet available in version 3, but will be incorporated in future releases of this archive (e.g. spatial-temporal analyses, and point-to-point comparisons with Kriging and Densification analysis).

The Word document ("Description-of-Archive.Updated-Geostatistical-Analysis-of-SARS-CoV-2 (version 3 - published July 17th 2020).docx") describes in detail the contents of each file and folder within these two archives.
