The program makes it easier for students without a mathematical background to explore the world of kriging. By dragging points and sliding the sliders, students will learn features like:
- the screening effect (negative weights), kriging as a non-convex interpolator;
- the declustering effect;
- the effect of upscaling (block-kriging);
- the impact of variogram shape, nugget, sill and range on the estimations,
- how kriging can be turned into a nearest neighbour interpolator or a local mean interpolator;
- etc
