Spatial pattern measures

[wpbonelli]

We can straightforwardly adopt a number of measures for raster data from geostatistics & landscape ecology. Good starting list here, more here.

• nearest neighbor distribution
• Shannon entropy (added in 59a8a50)
• configurational entropy (Cushman) (added in 59a8a50)
• diversity (e.g., Simpson's index)
• dominance
• fractal dimension
• contagion
