Module Multiple Regression Analysis (Grid and Predictor Grids)

Linear regression analysis of one grid as dependent and multiple grids as indepentent (predictor) variables. Details of the regression/correlation analysis will be saved to a table. Optionally the regression model is used to create a new grid with regression based values. The multiple regression analysis uses a forward selection procedure.
