_D_e_s_c_r_i_p_t_i_o_n:

     This function integrates out the uncertainty with respect to
     unknown spatial effects by averaging over the dimension spanned by
     the employed  weight matrices. The function thus returns an object
     comparable to 'topmod' contained in a standard 'bms' bma object.
     The statistics  calculated based on this transformed 'topmod'
     object are thus weighted averages with respect to the weight
     matrices. To get the  disaggregated results see spatFilt.bms.

_U_s_a_g_e:

     w2topmod(tmo,wNr)

_A_r_g_u_m_e_n_t_s:

     tmo: A spatial filtering bma object see argument 'nmodel' in
          'spatFilt.bms') 

     wNr: The number of employed weight matrices (i.e. 'length' of
          'WList', see spatFilt.bms) 

_V_a_l_u_e:

     the result is a standard 'topmod' object. See bms for more
     details.
