Geostatistics – II

In many situations, we observe a process over a limited number of locations and are interested in estimating its values at nearby unsampled locations. Geostatistical methods provide a powerful tool to do this. In this session, we will build upon the material and intuitions covered in the first workshop. We will focus on the principles, application, and interpretation of results using R, and will cover topics such as variogram modeling, empirical variogram, estimation techniques, and prediction uncertainty.

You should be familiar with R and the basic concepts of GIS data, should have taken an introductory course in statistics, and know the basics of linear algebra.
