Need help creating spatial correlation for MC simulation

Thank you for the input.

Which command in the spatstat package am I looking for? The documentation is
unclear to me.

I think that on spatial stat you will find several ways of simulate

The original question was pretty opaque too. I think that the response from 
both the people who replied was based on your use of the word "clustering", 
which is most often used in spatial statistics with reference to the 
analysis of point patterns.

Since that possibly isn't the case, perhaps you should reformulate your 
question, and consider posting on the R-sig-geo list, after reviewing 
the Spatial Task View on your nearest CRAN mirror. My guess would be that
you are thinking of local indicators of spatial association using areal
data, in which case there are some functions in the spdep package, but
until we know what your actual needs are, it is hard to say. You could,
for example, be looking for some of the tests in the DCluster package,
but we cannot tell.
