Evaluation of Geostatistics and Wavelets for Identifying Relations Between Imagery and Different Spatial Resolutions and for Data Compression
Abstract
This is the first report of the project to apply geostatistics and wavelet analysis to art of the area chosen at Fort A.P. Hill in northeastern Virginia. This report embraces a summary of time spent at TEC, cokriging of Korean temperature data, and the comparison between geostatistics and wavelet analysis in these sections. Although this report is the first, it covers almost half of the work to be one. The cokriging of temperature in Korea is an exercise to determine whether estimates can be improved by using more information on altitude to estimate temperature with smaller error than by ordinary kriging. Wavelets and geostatistics can both be used for filtering data for data reconstruction. A comparison between he two approaches is described.. It seems that wavelets provide a more accurate method for data reconstruction, but geostatistics is more appropriate for exploring different resolutions of spatial variation that have been identified by the variogram.
