New Version 0.2

Scikit-gstat was rewritten in major parts. Most of the changes are internal, but the attributes and behaviour of the Variogram has also changed substantially. A detailed description of of the new versions usage will follow. The last version of the old Variogram class, 0.1.8, is kept in the version-0.1.8 branch on GitHub, but not developed any further. Those two versions are not compatible.

Description

SciKit-Gstat is a scipy-styled analysis module for geostatistics. It includes two base classes Variogram and OrdinaryKriging. Additionally, various variogram classes inheriting from Variogram are available for solving directional or space-time related tasks. The module makes use of a rich selection of semi-variance estimators and variogram model functions, while being extensible at the same time. The estimators include:

• matheron

• cressie

• dowd

• genton

• entropy

• two experimental ones: quantiles, minmax

The models include:

• sperical

• exponential

• gaussian

• cubic

• stable

• matérn

with all of them in a nugget and no-nugget variation. All the estimator are implemented using numba’s jit decorator. The usage of numba might be subject to change in future versions. At the current stage, the package does not include any kriging. This is planned for a future release.

Installation

PyPI:

pip install scikit-gstat

GIT:

git clone https://github.com/mmaelicke/scikit-gstat.git
cd scikit-gstat
pip install -r requirements.txt
pip install -e .

Usage

The Variogram class needs at least a list of coordiantes and values. All other attributes are set by default. You can easily set up an example by generating some random data:

import numpy as np
import skgstat as skg

coordinates = np.random.gamma(0.7, 2, (30,2))
values = np.random.gamma(2, 2, 30)

V = skg.Variogram(coordinates=coordinates, values=values)
print(V)
