Comment: Getting into Space with a Weight Problem

This article will focus its discussion on accounting for the complex design when analyzing survey data, and on spatial modeling. With respect to the former, this article considers two approaches: direct use of the weights, and a model-based approach using a spatial model to acknowledge clustering. With respect to spatial modeling this article describes, the stochastic partial differential equations (SPDEs; Lindgren et al. 2011) approach to modeling.
