Abstract:	This roundtable will provide a forum for discussion of the some of the most recent developments in spatial statistics, software, and GIS. Discussion will begin with the availability of spatial statistics in various software. I would then like to share some of our experiences with the software. Topics will include the feature sets of various software. For example, can we easily do generalized linear models that include spatial models? How important is it to have spatial statistical analysis tightly linked to a GIS? The roundtable will also provide an opportunity to brainstorm about some of the new directions that are wanted and needed in spatial statistical software.
