The CSPATIALREG Procedure
PROC CSPATIALREG Compared with the SPATIALREG Procedure
The CSPATIALREG procedure is specifically designed to operate on SAS Viya and performs computations in multiple threads on multiple machines. In comparison, the SPATIALREG procedure executes in multiple threads on a single machine. The CSPATIALREG procedure models cross-sectional spatial data in a way that is similar to how the SPATIALREG procedure in SAS/ETS software models them.
This release of the CSPATIALREG procedure supports all the models that are supported by PROC SPATIALREG. The CSPATIALREG procedure provides the following additional features, which are not provided by the SPATIALREG procedure:
support for Taylor and Chebyshev approximation techniques for spatial error models
support for Taylor and Chebyshev approximation techniques for spatial Durbin error models
