Good question, I'll include r-sig-geo as well.
actually the prediction equations you end up with are kind of funny, and
I've never seen them written out. Two different covariance matrices
being inversed.
Package gstat can do the two-step approach: global BLUE, then simple
kriging of residual, but that ignores the correlation of both terms,
when added.
I'm quite sure that if you do Gaussian simulation however with gstat,
the trend is fitted globally (and simulated from the corresponding GLS
mean & covariance), whereas the kriging is done locally, so that should
result in realisations that have the variance you want. You just have to
compute the average and variance, to get estimates of the kriging mean
and variance you're looking for. Also, it might be computationally
demanding, both in time and space (memory).

Dear all,
My question is how to performe LOCAL universal kriging with
estimation of regression coefficients from the whole area
(GLOBAL estimation) at once.
For large data (I have more than 8000 records) is computationaly too
demanding to handle with all the data for UK prediction. Hence,
I prefer to do it LOCALLY (namx=100), but the reg. coeff.
would be estimated only with limited data in this case (not all
data are included).
To estimate the reg. coeff. first (with BLUE=TRUE) and then perform
the simple kriging with beta equals to the reg. coeff. and nmax=100
might be the
solution. But the reg. coeff. estimation error is not included into the
final kriging variance in this case.
Anybody knows how to join these two requirements (LOCAL UK and GLOBAL
estinmation of reg. coeff.) into one prediction???
I will appreciate any coments!
