From: Exploratory disease mapping: kriging the spatial risk function from regional count data
Normal probability plot of cross-validation residuals from kriging smoothed prevalences. Normal probability plot of the cross-validation residuals from kriging the empirical Bayesian smoothed regional period prevalences. Observations 3, 8 and 13 may be spatial outliers with respect to the model based on the data set with observations 3 and 15 removed. Regions 8 and 13 are nearest neighbours of region 15, all three of which are part of a positive cluster.
