The geostatistical model Gaussian process μ(s)=EZ(s) Var Z(s) < ∞ Z isstrictly stationary if Z isweakly stationary if Z isisotropic if weakly stationary and
The problem Given observations at n locations Z(s1),...,Z(sn) estimate Z(s0) (the process at an unobserved location) (an average of the process) In the environmental context often time series of observations at the locations. or

Simple kriging Let X = (Z(s1),...,Z(sn))T, Y = Z(s0), so that μX=μ1n, μY=μ, ΣXX=[C(si-sj)], ΣYY=C(0), and ΣYX=[C(si-s0)]. Then This is the best unbiased linear predictor whenμ and C are known (simple kriging). The prediction variance is
Some variants Ordinary kriging (unknown μ) where Universal kriging (μ(s)=A(s)β for some spatial variable A) where Still optimal for known C.

The (semi)variogram Intrinsic stationarity Weaker assumption (C(0) needs not exist) Kriging predictions can be expressed in terms of the variogram instead of the covariance.
The exponential variogram A commonly used variogram function is γ (h) = σ2 (1 – e–h/ϕ). Corresponds to a Gaussian process with continuous but not differentiable sample paths. More generally, has a nugget τ2, corresponding to measurement error and spatial correlation at small distances.

Bayesian kriging Instead of estimating the parameters, we put a prior distribution on them, and update the distribution using the data. Model: (Z(s1)...Z(sn))T measurement error Matrix with i,j-element C(si-sj; φ) (correlation) θ=(β,σ2,φ,τ2)T
