Getis and Franklin (1987), introduced a technique based on second order methods, called second order neighbourhood method, which is used to quantify clustering at various spatial scales. Variants of this method are introduced for testing whether a spatial point pattern is consistent with the hypothesis of a Poisson process. These variants are applied to point location data for a sample of Ponderosa pine ( Pinus ponderosa ) trees.
