Gstat

Gstat is a computer program for geostatistical modelling, prediction and simulation. Gstat works at least on the following platforms: Linux, hp-ux (9.x, 10.x), aix (3.2, 4.1), OSF/Alpha, SunOS, SGI, win32 and MS-DOS (dpmi). Gstat is Open Source software, distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public Licence (meaning it's freely available in binary and source code form).

A somewhat longer introduction text on the features of gstat is found in the introduction of the user's manual.

In 1998, an article on gstat appeared in Computers and Geosciences [Edzer J. Pebesma and Cees G. Wesseling, 1998, Gstat: a program for geostatistical modelling, prediction and simulation. Computers & Geosciences Vol. 24, No. 1, pp. 17-31] Here are some corrections to it.

Gstat uses gnuplot for the display of sample variograms and variogram functions. Gnuplot is a program for plotting functions and data. Gnuplot is ported to most computer platforms, and allows saving graphs in many formats (EPS, PNG, gif, cgm, LaTeX, fig, etc.). See the links section for links to gnuplot.
