Dear list members,
 
Does anyone can help me understanding variogram range interpretation or send me some specific references.
I am currently analyzing variograms computed over the same site of a remote sensing image. The first variogram was derived from the original image and the second one was derived from the transformed image (using a mathematical model). All the variograms were fitted with an exponential model. The range value I got  from the transformed image is higher than the one from the original image. I would like to know:
 
1. For ranges of 4 pixels (original image) and 9 pixels (transformed image), does this difference can impact significantly on a ground sampling for instance ? What should be the acceptable range difference ?
 
2. In terms of spatial correlation, can we say that a high range value is associated with a less spatial correlation between data points (pixels)? On other hands, the spatial information content was reduced by the transformation ?
 
3. Can we say that data with small variogram range is more heterogeneous than data with high variogram range ?
 
Regards,
 
Charles
