My predictors include both continuous variables (slope and a second orderpolynomial of elevation) and a discrete variable for aspect (warm and cool). Ihave left unchanged the default contrasts option, so I believe that thefollowing coefficients were created using treatment contrasts. Myquestion how can I take this summary output and create the logistic equationthat will allow me to calculate probability of occurrence. My interests are touse this to spatially display this info in a GIS environment. I have made adraft equation (shown below) that uses the coefficients from this summaryoutput, but this appears to be incorrect – values always return zeroprobabilities. Presumably I need to adjust the values in some way – but I amunclear as to how to proceed. Anyguidance would be appreciated! >summary (model.Slope.Elevation.Aspect) Call:glm(formula= Po ~ Slope + poly(Elevation, 2) + Aspect_2, family = quasibinomial) DevianceResiduals: Min 1Q Median 3Q Max -1.0532 -0.4167 -0.2760 -0.1823 3.3376 Coefficients: Estimate Std.
