Re: [R-sig-Geo] variogram using gstat

From the gslib book, I understand that there is a lag, and a lag tolerance, and a cutoff. lag 0 is 0, the lag 1 is <0,tol], lag 2 , lag3 , etc. This allows for overlap in the lags, if tolerance is larger than half the difference between lags. gstat uses regular lag (the first one is not shor

Dear sir, I spent lot of time to figured it out what causing the difference in result of R/gstat and gslib but didn't get any logical explanation. In my opinion the source of difference is the cutoff and width. I would be thankful if you give me the in depth explanation of these two parameters

Hi Edzer, Well, I wrote similar because I don't now the details by heart. Furthermore the we analysed the same data independently in R/gstat and variowin/gslib. The emphasis of our comparisons was rather on what was the most userfriendly workflow. So the question was not realy if gslib yields exac

Hi all, Does anyone know if there exists a function in R that can calculate geographical slope and aspect (i.e. like elevational slope/aspect) on grid values? I've looked around on the R-sites but could not find anything on this. I hope can help a simple soul... Cheers, Roel Roel May Norwegia

Dear Erik, In my opinion you beter first create an interpolated grid (e.g. with kriging). Then plot this interpolated grid. That will reduce the number of points dramatically. A 100 by 100 grid will probably do. HTH, Thierry -

Dear Pujan, Calculating variograms on large datasets is computationally rather heavy. So maybe R didn't hang but was still busy calculating the variogram. Run your script overnight (or over the weekend) and see the next morning if it finished. I couldn't find an error in your code at first glance.
