Hi, Im using geoR and I'm trying to do some predictions, based on an external trend. I'm having some problems specifying my model.control, specifically how do I define my model, and also the source of the covariate data at the prediction locations? I am assuming that the covariate data at the prediction locations should be imported to a geodata object along with the prediction location

Hello, I'm interested in doing Bayesian kriging using R. I see that the package geoR has a function that will allow one to do this (krige.bayes). However, my data are not in the form of points, but rather they are blocks that represent spatial averages (i.e., the number of fishing hooks per month in a given lat x long square). I am therefore interested in treating the data as

Hi list, Well, this time I’ve a doubt with mapping generation. I was already able to read and plot shapefiles, plot point on this map. All this without any problems, but now I want to do something that I think, only Golden Software Surfer is capable of. I would like to plot a kriging result on the existing map (map script below). Well I looked for on the net, but I was not able to be sure of

Hi all, I tried to produce some kriged surfaces with geoR (latest version). The size of the grid should be around 900 x 650 cells (what I find is not a very big grid), and the number of points is around 2500. The command krige.conv stopped after arround 5 min saying it can not allocate a vector with around 1.5 billion units. Sounds reasonable. Is there a workaround? How would I partition the

Dear Aaron, I am really a tool user and not a tool maker (actually an ecologist doing some biostatistics)... so, I take the liberty of sending a copy of this e-mail to the r-help list where capable computer persons and true statisticians may provide more relevant information and also to Paulo Ribeiro and Peter Diggle, the authors of geoR.. I really feel that your huge matrix cannot be

R Experts, I'm looking for some help with the geoR package. I'm trying to krig some data without using a global neighborhood. I would like to set my moving neighborhood to a distance, say 100 meters, where I know my data is spatially correlated. I have tried the ksline function, but that only allows my moving neighborhood to be set to a number of data points. But, since my data

Dear R community, I'm having hard time to understand the kde function in "ks" package. Let me use a 3-dimensional kernel smooth example to explain my question using the elevation data in geoR. ### here is what I did ### library(ks) require(geoR) data(elevation) elev.df <- data.frame(x = elevation$coords[,"x"], y = elevation$coords[,"y"], z = elevation$data)

Hi, I'm using the function krige.conv from package geoR but I'm getting a warning that I do not understand: Warning messages: 1: NaNs produced in: sqrt(variance) 2: NaNs produced in: sqrt(variance) I'm performimg an ordinary kriging with a log transform (lambda=0). Does anyone knows where this comes from ? Thanks and regards EJ

Hi ! Sorry for my ignorance. I have two questions: 1) which is in R the function to make a covariogram of spatial data ? 2) does anyone know if there exist the possibility in R of performing kriging with an arbitrary covariance function ? If I have well understood the Krig procedure offers only three possibilities (expcov, gauscov and sphercov) that are the common models for stationary and

Dear R list, I've just installed R and then followed the instructions to install the package "geoR" from within R by using the following line of code: install.packages("geoR", contriburl = "http://www.est.ufpr.br/geoR/windows") This installed okay under the folder C:\documents and settings\ ... But when I follow the instructions in the illustrative session

I've enconuntered this problem with the last cran version of geoR: > library(geoR) > day <- rep(1:2, each=5) > coords <- matrix(rep(runif(10),2), 10, 2) > data <- rnorm(10) > data[1] <- NA > as.geodata(cbind(coords, data, day), realisations=4) as.geodata: 1 points removed due to NA in the data Errore in as.geodata(cbind(coords, data, day), realisations = 4) :

Hi all, I have to draw a map of microorganisms repartition in a sample. I use the "image" function of geoR package to build the map but there are three problems: 1) the legend is Horizontal (with or without vert.leg=TRUE) 2) I want to plot the position of organisms and level curves of density on the map but I don't find the script to insert these data on the map. 3)the grey range

Hi, I'm a new R user. My goal is to do a variogram using geoR. I started by trying to do the example in the geoR Illustrative Session using my own data. I am able to read in my Ascii data using: D <- matrix(scan("file.dat", n=530*3), 530,3, byrow=TRUE). Then I use: as.geodata(D, coords.col=1:2, data.col=3) to make the object D geodata. I check the descriptive statistics,

ComRades: I am geeting the error message Error in ldots[[which(MET)]] : attempt to select less than one element when I try to fit the geostatistical model with the likfit() function of geoR. I have tried with old data for which likfit() successfully maximised the likelihood in previous versions of geoR, and yet the current version fails. I have tried in Windows Vista and Windows XP (I haven't

Hi, everybody! i created a imagem by kriging using geoR package. I imported points from GRASS("zn", after converted to geodata "zn_geo"), the border "zn_border" and a raster mask. Then i interpolated the points by kriging and created a raster image. Now, i need export this image back to GRASS to use it in the module r.mapcalc. I can't do it. I tried use

Dear GeoR-er, If I use the variog function in the latest release of geoR, the first lag is always ignored. For instance, if you read in geodata, calculates the variogram using the variog function and give in a uvec like uvec=seq(0,max,by=2.44), it only starts giving results from distance=4.88 and ignores 2.44! This wasn't the case in former versions of geoR. Is this done on purpose? Why?

Hi I'm using geoR package to perform linear spatial interpolation(OK). The function likfit() fails to compute REML. The error meassage is : Error in solve.default(v$varcov, xmat); How I can find out that likfit() is failed to process and retrieving the error message ? Thank you so much for your help.

All, I am new to using R and know some basics. I wish to use kriging in R to do the following: given data Y =f(X1,X2,X3,.....,Xn) --1000+ irregular measured data set. I would like to be able to get a single value y given sinle input set (x1,x2,x3,...xn) A google search on this takes me lierally to the same example on involving analysis with soil sampling and I cannot figure out how to

Hello everyone. I am trying to build up understanding in R by trying to develop just some simple scenarios. I would like to explain you what I am trying to do and what I did so far. I would like to put inside a RasterLayer (raster package) a Gaussian field (for given covariance) using grf function (geoR package) 1. First I created a Raster Layer object r <- raster() # Default values are

Hello, I am attempting to get the standard deviation in multiple distance bins in my spatial data. It appears as though the 'variog' command in the geoR package will do the trick, as one of the outputs from 'variog' is 'variog$sd', which, according to the manual, is the "standard deviation of the values in each bin". However, when I run this command, the
