Variogram Map calculation

Description

Calculate the Variogram Map for a set of variables in a Grid Data Base

Usage

vmap.grid(dbgrid, dbmap=NA,
nx = 10, ny = 10, nz=10, calcul="vg",flag.fft=TRUE, 
radix = NA, modify.target = db.locmod())

Arguments

dbgrid

The db-class (organized as a grid) containing the variables used for the calculation of the Variogram Map.

dbmap

The db-class (organized as a grid) which will contain the Variogram Map results. If not provided, the 'dbmap' file is created by this procedure. Otherwise the results of this calculation will be added as new variables.

nx

Gives the dimension of the Variogram Map along the first axis (2*nx+1)

ny

Gives the dimension of the Variogram Map along the second axis (2*ny+1)

nz

Gives the dimension of the Variogram Map along the third axis (2*nz+1)

calcul

Character string giving the type of structure to compute:

  • vg : Variogram

  • cov : Covariance (Centered)

  • covnc : Non-centered Covariance

  • covg : Transitive Covariogram

  • mado : Madogram (Variogram of order 1)

  • rodo : Rodogram (Variogram of order 1/2)

  • poisson : Variogram of a Poisson-weighted variable

flag.fft

When TRUE, launch the calculation using the specific calculations using FFT tgransforms (only available for 2-D grids)

radix

Radix of the name given to the variables stored in the Variogram Map Grid

modify.target

Decides whether or not the newly created variables will have their locator defined or not. For more information, see db.locmod.

Value

The output consists of a new Grid Data Base with several new variables:
