AI-GEOSTATS: kriging estimation precision

2008-01-14 Thread G. Allegri
Hi everyone, this is my very first post on this mailing-list. I need to produce a map of soil salinity space variability. I have chosen to compare the estimation of OK, Regression Kriging and Indicator Kriging reliability on my data-set. I know that kriging variance depends only on the geometrical

Jamina Different software packages have different requirements for defining anisotropy. Some will allow you to define completely a model for each major axis of the anisotropy ellipse. The simplest (geometric anisotropy) just accept anisotropy 'factors' for the range of influence. In

Hi Well, in general the simulations are useful if you need to evaluate spatial uncertainty, for example if you have to apply some transfer function to your data or the need to evaluate the probability that some neighbor cells overcome jointly a given threshold. Then kriging variance is

Dear Mrs. Clark, As you have mentioned,anisotropy is an important aspect in modeling. For me one question always,is: although,we have usually rather strong structures in vertical direction, the horizontal direction is very much vague and with changing every graphical parameters or search

Thank you very much for the replies. I've found the papers suggested by Mahmut very useful, as I'm asked to find a method to spatialize soil salinity measures (Ece and SAR) to investigate/forecast the salinity risk in coastal areas under saline waters irrigation (temporal changes will be

The general method is to try to apply the same sort of shape in each direction, changing the range of influence for the different directions. Have you tried looking at semi-variogram maps. These can often help with anisotropy when individual directional semi-variograms are vague.
