GSTools API

Purpose

GeoStatTools is a library providing geostatistical tools for random field generation, conditioned field generation, kriging and variogram estimation based on a list of provided or even user-defined covariance models.

The following functionalities are directly provided on module-level.

Subpackages

covmodel GStools subpackage providing a set of handy covariance models.
field GStools subpackage providing tools for spatial random fields.
variogram GStools subpackage providing tools for estimating and fitting variograms.
krige GStools subpackage providing kriging.
random GStools subpackage for random number generation.
tools GStools subpackage providing miscellaneous tools.
transform GStools subpackage providing transformations.
