Spatialize: A Python wrapper for C++ ESI library

What is it?

Spatialize is an open source library that implements ensemble spatial interpolation, a novel method that combines the simplicity of basic interpolation methods with the power of classical geoestatistical tools, like Kriging.

This library aims to bridge the gap between expert and non-expert users of geostatistics by providing automated tools that rival traditional geostatistical methods.

Main features of the library include:

• Stochastic modelling and ensemble learning, making it robust, scalable and suitable for large datasets.
• Provides a powerful framework for uncertainty quantification, offering both point estimates and empirical posterior distributions.
• It is implemented in Python 3.x, with a C++ core for improved performance.
• It is designed to be easy to use, requiring minimal user intervention.
