Dear all,

I am using the spdep package to compute Local Moran Index.

My problem is that I am using 3D coordinates (x,y,z), and I would like to 
compute the k-nearest neighbours (k=10) for each point in my 3D space. I have 
already done this in 2D, by doing the following:


>neighs_k <- knn2nb(knearneigh(as.matrix(full),
                                        k = 10))
> neighs_mat_k <- nb2listw(neighs_k
                         style = "W",
                         zero.policy = TRUE)

And then I can easily proceed using the neighs_mat_k object.

However, when using x,y,z coordinates I can't run the knearneigh() function on 
it. I tried converting my data to a distance matrix and using mat2listw() 
function like this:

>D <- as.matrix(dist(full, diag=FALSE, upper=FALSE))
>test1 <- mat2listw(D)

...but now I don't know how to retrieve the k-nearest weights from my test1 
object (which would correspond to k-nearest neighbours) without changing the 
class of test1, which is:

> class(test1)
[1] "listw" "nb"
## and contains...:
> ls(test1)
[1] "neighbours" "style"      "weights"


How should I do this? Is this even the right way to proceed?

Thanks all in advance!!
Best wishes,

Juan
