AI-GEOSTATS: modelling_dem_point

2004-02-25 Thread Ines



Dear member 
list
Considering the Albedini question ,regarding the definition of 
the number of lags and the lag distance,ifIhave a data 
points(x,y coordinates and z elevation)irregularspaced, 
considering that in the grid data the data are associated to the centre of 
thecells,can I converted them into a grid without 
changingtheir position (x, y) and which elevation value will 
beconnectedwith each cell?
if the data point are regular spaced the lag distance can not be defined 
like the distance detween two point?

regardsInes

It isn't usually a good idea to go pushing your data
to where you would like them to be. A good way to
determine natural spacing is to carry out a 'nearest
neighbour' analysis.

If data are on a grid, the best spacing is 0.2 times
grid size. This keeps single grid spacing separate
from single diagonal spacing and so on.
