#To: Multiple recipients of list GIS-L <GIS-L%UBVM at zorro.cecer.army.mil>
#Status: R
#
#Is anyone working on adding geostatistical capabilities for
#GRASS?   I've tried over the past two years to find code for
#this (in C, no FORTRAN or BASIC, please!!), but have failed.
#I'm just about ready to take on the task myself (I would have
#done it sooner, but my knowledge of geostatistics is weak - my
#interest is just high, especially after recent postings).
#
#Please stop me from starting from scratch if you know of any
#C code that would help me.  I guess the first easy projects
#would be Moran's I and the Geary ratio.  I may be able to grab
#some C++ code from a friend for block and punctual kriging.
#Semivariogram fitting for different models would be a pain (so
#I'll just stick to the linear case).  Talk is cheap - so I may
#even add detrending (guess I should buy Cressie's book).
#
#Don't ask me next week for this stuff, because this won't
#happen overnight.   I'll let the GRASS world know if I come
#up with something useful. BUT PLEASE, don't let me re-invent
#the wheel if C code is already available.
