In the course fundamentals, some of the history and theoretical underpinnings of DSM was discussed. Now with a solid foundation in R
, it is time to put this all into practice i.e. do DSM with R
. In the DSM preparation pages you were introduced to common steps need to get data in a format ready for spatial modelling. The implementation of some of the most commonly used model functions used for digital soil mapping will be covered in this section of pages. A few general concepts around assessing model fitness and validation need some covering first, but if you already comfortable about these, then jump straight into the looking at and fitting models.
