| Abstract: | The probabilistic approach is but one language used by geostatisticians to characterize spatial variability and to express a very simple criterion for goodness of estimation. Notions such as stationarity and ergodicity are important for the consistency of the probabilistic language but are irrelevant to the real problem, that of estimating a well-defined deterministic spatial average. The kriging algorithm is established without any recourse to probabilistic modeling or notation. |
