Among the Milky Way satellites discovered in the past three years, TriangulumII has presented the most difficulty in revealing its dynamical status. Kirby et al. identified it as the most dark-matter-dominated galaxy known, with a mass-to-light ratio within the half-light radius of M L 360

The paper starts by sketching the key modes of spatial data analysis (point pattern, continuous surface, areal/lattice), and how they fit into legacy GIS data models. Based on development work with the GRASS release 5 team (GRASS 5 is GPL), status is reported for using R in the analysis of sites (point) data and for raster data, as well as using R as an intermediate analytical environment for i...
