Hi, Kernel estimation could be done many ways. If you are generalising or generating statistics for square celled raster data or points then I may be able to help.
It may be that convolve operations (or something else) in JAI, that others on this list can help you with, are better suited to what you want, than some of the things I go on about below. There are some univariate and bivariate statistics for point distributions that can be got using a Geographically Weighted Statistics (GWS) package I started developing some time ago: http://www.geog.leeds.ac.uk/people/a.turner/src/andyt/java/gws/ GWS is based on Grids which evolved from GeoTools long ago, but has not been merged back. This is a library for 2D square celled raster data. More on Grids at the following: http://www.geog.leeds.ac.uk/people/a.turner/src/andyt/java/grids/ There is code for two different types of kernel in Grids, but it should be reasonably easy to detail any weighting scheme or function to apply. One kernel is a standard normal kernel - based on the mean and variance of the cell centroid distances (within a specified region). I can detail the other if wanted... Grids was designed for processing entire grids on a cell by cell basis generating outputs usually for the same spatial frame. I have not developed GWS for some time, but I would like to revisit this. I have been doing some work on Grids processing Digital Elevation Models of late and should probably make a new code release if you plan to use it. Maybe I can work with you to get something you want. Anyway, good luck!

I am not quite sure how they did it ... check out the Diva GIS project for more information (that was one of the teams I remember doing the work).
