64. Manual 49 Correlation Matrix Introduction RANN Within ADMS there is a tool called the Correlation Matrix This tool is used to measure Similarities and differences between multiple layers that are turned on This tool can be used on any surface including imagery yield and prescription maps It is helpful for measuring the similarities between different images as well as aiding in blending nutri ents The correlation matrix uses the Pearson correlation coefficient and measures the linear correlation between two variables The output value will be between 1 amp 1 The closer the value is to 1 the stronger the correlation Correlation Value Less than 0 3 0 3 0 5 0 5 0 7 0 7 1 0 Meaning Not Meaningful Weak Correlation Moderate Correlation Strong Correlation Using the Correlation Matrix 1 Clear the Map Window so no layers are turned on e Correlation does not imply Causation Because two variables are similar or have a strong correlation does not mean that they are related to each other e Negative numbers indicate an inverse correlation An example would be a correlation between yield and soluble salts If the salts are at a higher or toxic level in the field the yield would be low er Therefore a negative correlation would result x Even if the layers are not visible but still turned on the correlation matrix will run on all of them The more layers that are turned on the long
