Hi, Saraly!
I can't remember exactly but I had the same problem some time back
when I was tinkering with a time-space dynamic panel model. What I did
was -reshape-d the data to wide format, computed for the weight matrix
using -spwmatrix-, generated the spatial lags using -splagvar-, and
-reshape-d the data back to its original format. I know this is a
dirty job. I think I also tried tinkering with Mata and Kroneker
product to come up with a block diagonal matrix which I used to
generate the spatial lags in the original format of my data.
Cheers,
Michael
