  <dc:title>Easy Spatial Modeling with Random Forest</dc:title>

  <dc:description>Automatic generation and selection of spatial predictors for Random Forest models fitted to spatially structured data. Spatial predictors are constructed from a distance matrix among training samples using Moran's Eigenvector Maps (MEMs; Dray, Legendre, and Peres-Neto 2006 &lt;DOI:10.1016/j.ecolmodel.2006.02.015&gt;) or the RFsp approach (Hengl et al. &lt;DOI:10.7717/peerj.5518&gt;). These predictors are used alongside user-supplied explanatory variables in Random Forest models. The package provides functions for model fitting, multicollinearity reduction, interaction identification, hyperparameter tuning, evaluation via spatial cross-validation, and result visualization using partial dependence and interaction plots. Model fitting relies on the 'ranger' package (Wright and Ziegler 2017 &lt;DOI:10.18637/jss.v077.i01&gt;).</dc:description>
