Journal of the Royal Statistical Society Series C, 1979, vol. 28, issue 1, 14-19

Abstract: A method is developed for defining and mapping the dense and sparse areas of a forest stand or any spatial point pattern where the coordinates of all the trees or point events are known. The method is then used on various sets of data, contour maps being produced by a computer package, symap, showing the regions of high density of trees (dense areas, clumps), the regions of low density (sparse areas) and the intermediate regions.
