I am wondering about some good online resources for learning how to implement spatial statistical techniques, like Moran's I and Geary's C, or even K Nearest Neighbors...any help is appreciated. Thanks!

Could you clarify what you mean by "implement"? Are you seeking information about how to apply and interpret these techniques, or about algorithms for implementing them yourself in computer code? – whuber Aug 21 '14 at 18:50

I am seeking resources for both, preferably in R @whuber – Moderat Aug 21 '14 at 20:53

Spatial Regression Models, by Michael D. Ward and Kristian Skrede Gleditsch is an exellent short introduction. Moran's I is explained on p.23.
Applied Spatial Data Analysis with R by Bivand, Pebesma, Gomez-Rubio is a popular choice for doing spatial modelling in R.
In terms packages, R , as usual, has many packages to do all sorts of spatial analysis. One package that computes Moran's I is ape For spatial kringing and the likes: gstat, akima, fields, gss
