Peter:
Definitely check out the sp package and the rgdal package -- these will
allow you ACCESS to the raster data, but can you be more specific about
what sort of "spatial distributions" you are talking about? There are a
lot of "non-spatial" packages in R which could be used to generate the
sort of statistics you might be interested in once your data is
"properly formatted" (e.g. in the description you have below, you might
use rgdal to help covert the data to "vector" format, e.g. subset out
all "1"s and make a data frame of x,y,value of the cell). After all,
many "spatial" statistics are just analyses with two predictors
variables (x and y) -- there's not necessarily anything unique to
spatial data analysis once you get past data format.

This might be a good question to take to R-sig-geo.
Have you looked at any of the R packages for spatial analysis? You can
download their reference manuals, or go their websites, to try to
figure out which one might be good.
Or, go to the CRAN website, click on Task Views on the left, thence to
the "Spatial" link.

Dear colleagues,
I'm searching for methods to analyze spatial distributions of cells with
certain properties in a regular grid. For instance, consider a grid,
where a
part of the cells have the property "0", and the others have the
property
"1". I'm looking for statistics I could use for characterizing the
spatial
distribution of the "1-cells".
Does anyone know about R-packages, where such methods are implemented?
Best regards
Peter
