Description

Geostatistics is a branch of applied statistics that deals with the analysis, interpretation, and modeling of spatial data. It comprises various techniques to study spatial variability and patterns in geosciences, environmental sciences, and other fields. By incorporating both location and attribute information, geostatistics enables better understanding and prediction of spatial phenomena such as mineral deposits, groundwater contamination, and ecological patterns. Key methods include variogram analysis, kriging, and spatial interpolation, which help in estimating values at unsampled locations based on the spatial correlation structure of the data. Geostatistics plays a crucial role in decision-making processes related to resource management, environmental protection, and urban planning by providing valuable insights into spatial relationships and uncertainty assessment. This book will also provide interesting topics for research which interested readers can take up. It includes some of the vital pieces of work being conducted across the world, on various topics related to geostatistics. The readers would gain knowledge that would broaden their perspective about this subject.
