Abstract: In the context of the first-order auto-logistic model for dichotomous spatial data, we obtain the first statistical test for comparing two geographical areas on the basis of their statistical properties. These optimal unbiased tests are illustrated with an example which features the Markov chain Monte Carlo numerical approximation.
