Fixing the Aggregate Function Error in R: A Step-by-Step Guide to Correct Usage and Code
Step 1: Understand the error message The error message “cannot coerce class ‘“function”’ to a data.frame” indicates that there is an issue with the aggregate function in R. The aggregate function is used to apply a function to a set of data and return the result as a new data frame.
Step 2: Identify the problem with the aggregate function The problem lies in the fact that the sum_as_hours column in the promax_final_data data frame contains an aggregate value (the sum of hours per quarter) which is being compared to another data frame (Quarter) containing individual values.

Using Variograms for Spatial and Temporal Analysis in R: A Step-by-Step Guide to gstat Package.
R gstat spatio-temporal variogram kriging Introduction to Spatial and Temporal Variograms In geostatistics, a spatial variogram measures the correlation between data points in space. A temporal variogram, on the other hand, measures the correlation between data points over time. When dealing with spatially and temporally correlated data, it’s essential to calculate both types of variograms to understand the underlying patterns.
Background: STIDF from the spacetime package The STIDF function in R, available in the spacetime package, is used for analyzing irregular spatio-temporal data.
