Summary
This project aims to develop theory and methodology required for statistical inference on spatiotemporal rates of change or gradients, followed by extending their use to assess boundaries that track significant changes in spatiotemporal response. The current stage of spatial and temporal data science bears witness to the recording of massive spatiotemporally indexed data for the purpose of tracking changes in spatial and temporal variables. This project outlines the details of the methodology and software development for quantifying and understanding change within large and complex spatiotempo
