Computation of Bicubic-Spline Surfaces for Irregularly-Spaced Data.

Abstract

Existing spline-surface programs require that the data be located at the nodes of a rectangular geographic grid. Algorithms are presented for one possible method of computing a spline surface for irregularly-spaced data points. The technique is illustrated for a small part of the subsurface Dundee Limestone, Central Michigan, U.S.A. A FORTRAN 4 Computer program (for CDC6400) and sample output are provided.
