The purpose of this paper is to investigate the k-nearest neighbor classification rule for spatially dependent data. Some spatial mixing conditions are considered, and under such spatial structures, the well known k-nearest neighbor rule is suggested to classify spatial data. We established consistency and strong consistency of the classifier under mild assumptions. Our main results extend the consistency result in the i.i.d. case to the spatial case.Analysis of spatial data arises in various areas of research including agricultural field trials, astronomy, econometrics, epidemiology, environmental science, geology, hydrology, image analysis, meteorology, ecology, oceanography and many others in which the data of interest are collected across space. One of the most fundamental issues in spatial analysis is classification and pattern
