Large Datasets:

spam: a collection of functions based in R/Fortran for sparse matrix algebra.
Current development version of the R package: .
A stable version of the R package is posted on CRAN.

The next major version of fields requires spam as base for its sparse matrix algebra.

Manual, sample source code, help files and history is found on the spam page.

 

KriSp: a collection of functions based in R/Fortran for interpolation of large datasets using covariance tapering.
Stable version of the R package: KriSp_0.4.tar.gz.

fields contains a sparse matrix module based on spam and extends the capacities of KriSp. Therefore, KriSp will no longer be extended and future releases will consist of bug fixes only.

Manual, sample source code, help files and history is found on the KriSp page.

Robust Geostatistics:

Robust Kriging:

R rountines for robust kriging as discussed in Fournier, B. and Furrer, R. (2005) Automatic Mapping in the Presence of Substitutive Errors: A Robust Kriging Approach. Applied GIS 1(2), doi:10.2104/ag050012.
coming soon

Robust Variogram Estimation

Functions for robust estimation of the variogram based on the highly robust estimator of scale Qn.
Download the R package: qn_1.1.tar.gz, access a primitive manual (with references).

Old bundle of routines for robust estimation of the variogram and generalized least squares fitting.
The functions were essentially written in 1998. Access via the follwing links:

Yet another slide package: pfuef. I aimed for a stylefile which:

  • is based entirely on pdflatex and does not require any post processing
  • handles different types of backgrounds but produces easily a printable version.

Please write any comments, remarks or suggestions to rfurrer@mines.edu.
Manual: pfuefmanual.pdf
Examples: beautiful background   print version   Example 1   Example 2
Basic help and history: instructions.txt   history.txt
Download the entire bundle:  pfuef-v1.0.tar
Old distributed version: pfuef-v0.2.tar
