Welcome
What are you trying to do?
A study for my organisation in urban planning, estate management and architecture.
Your path
Create the study and set the discipline
The discipline decides what every later page shows you.
Decide whether people are involved
If your data is about machines, facilities or finances rather than people, declare no human subjects and the data protection conditions do not apply. The declaration is checked.
Collect or import
Collect through ZStat with consent and withdrawal, or bring a CSV, Excel or SPSS file you already have.
Analyse and compare
Between sites, periods, groups or programmes - with the effect size, because significance alone does not tell a manager whether it matters.
Produce the assurance pack
Generated from your own installation, for a funder or a data protection officer.
What people in your field ask
Geocode the observations - test whether location matters - model value or behaviour - map what is left.
- Do high property values cluster in particular areas?morans i
- Which neighbourhoods exactly are the hot spots?getis ord
- Are boreholes, kiosks or clinics evenly spread?nearest neighbour
- What drives property value here?ols regression
- Are residents satisfied with the housing scheme?reliability
Watch for: A hedonic model with no spatial check. Two flats on one street are not independent observations and the standard errors will be too small.
