Abstract

This paper presents an overview of the journal Spatial Statistics. It describes how it was initiated, how it developed and it highlights key moments from its young history. Starting in 2012, the journal has progressed in conjunction with the series of conferences in different countries over five continents. An important moment occurred when the journal received an impact factor in 2014. After a decline in the IF during the first years, the paper shows how the journal has now developed towards a more mature status, and is becoming a major scientific journal with a clearly defined niche. The paper describes in the end possible ways to move forward.
