We propose a nonparametric predictor and a supervised classification based on the regression function estimate of a spatial real variable using k-nearest neighbors method (k-NN). Under some assumptions, we establish almost complete or sure convergence of the proposed estimates which incorporate a spatial proximity between observations. Numerical results on simulated and real fish data illustrate the behavior of the given predictor and classification method.
