Geostatistical Analyst for Deciding Optimal Interpolation Strategies for Delineating Compact Zones

EZZone – An Online Tool for Delineating Management Zones

Management zones are a pillar of Precision Agriculture research. Spatial variability is apparent in all fields, and assessing this variability through measurement devices can lead to better management decisions. The use of Geographic Information Systems for agricultural management is common, especially with management zones. Although many algorithms have been produced in research settings, no o...

Assessment of geostatistical and interpolation methods for mapping forest dieback intensity in Zagros forests

During recent years, oak decline has been widely spread across Brant’s oak (Quercus Brantii Lindl.) stands in the Zagros Mountains, Western Iran, which caused large-area forest dieback in several sites. Mapping the intensity and spatial distribution of forest dieback is essential for developing management and control strategies. This study evaluated a range of geostatistical and interpolation m...

Geostatistical Alternatives for Incorporating Covariates in Areal Interpolation

Geostatistical Approach for Spatial Interpolation of Meteorological Data.

Meteorological data are used in many studies, especially in planning, disaster management, water resources management, hydrology, agriculture and environment. Analyzing changes in meteorological variables is very important to understand a climate system and minimize the adverse effects of the climate changes. One of the main issues in meteorological analysis is the interpolation of spatial data...

A Geostatistical Framework for Area-to-Point Spatial Interpolation

The spatial prediction of point values from areal data of the same attribute is addressed within the general geostatistical framework of change of support; the term support refers to the domain informed by each datum or unknown value. It is demonstrated that the proposed geostatistical framework can explicitly and consistently account for the support differences between the available areal data...
