Trees in Waka national park
}
\description{
This dataset is a spatial point pattern of trees
recorded at Waka National Park, Gabon.
See Balinga et al (2006).
The dataset \code{waka} is a point pattern
(object of class \code{"ppp"}) containing the spatial coordinates
of each tree, marked by the tree diameter at breast height
\code{dbh}.
The survey region is a 100 by 100 metre square.
Coordinates are given in metres, while the \code{dbh} is in centimetres.
