| contents | In public health applications, spatial data collected are often recorded at different spatial scales and over different correlated variables. Spatial change of support is a key inferential problem in these applications and have become standard in univariate settings; however, it is less standard in multivariate settings. There are several existing multivariate spatial models that can be easily combined with multiscale spatial approach to analyze multivariate multiscale spatial data. In this paper, we propose three new models from such combinations for bivariate multiscale spatial data in a Bayesian context. In particular, we extend spatial random effects models, multivariate conditional autoregressive models, and ordered hierarchical models through a multiscale spatial approach. We run simulation studies for the three models and compare them in terms of prediction performance and computational efficiency. We motivate our models through an analysis of 2015 Texas annual average percentage receiving two blood tests from the Dartmouth Atlas Project. |
