Overview

About

Maintained by Andreas PapritzFirst published 2010-07-2919 releasesCRAN page ↗

Provides functions for efficient computation of non-linear spatial predictions with local change of support (Hofer, C. and Papritz, A. (2011) "constrainedKriging: An R-package for customary, constrained and covariance-matching constrained point or block kriging" doi:10.1016/j.cageo.2011.02.009). This package supplies functions for two-dimensional spatial interpolation by constrained (Cressie, N. (1993) "Aggregation in geostatistical problems" doi:10.1007/978-94-011-1739-5_3), covariance-matching constrained (Aldworth, J. and Cressie, N. (2003) "Prediction of nonlinear spatial functionals" doi:10.1016/S0378-3758(02)00321-X) and universal (external drift) Kriging for points or blocks of any shape from data with a non-stationary mean function and an isotropic weakly stationary covariance function. The linear spatial interpolation methods, constrained and covariance-matching constrained Kriging, provide approximately unbiased prediction for non-linear target values under change of support. This package extends the range of tools for spatial predictions available in R and provides an alternative to conditional simulation for non-linear spatial prediction problems with local change of support.

Install

R (CRAN)Ubuntu (r2u)Fedora (COPR)openSUSE (OBS)

install.packages("constrainedKriging", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")

Installs the current CRAN release. Prebuilt binaries on Windows and macOS.

Release

# enable cranapt (r2u) if it is not already set up, then install
grep -rqs r2u.stat.illinois.edu /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ \
  || curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eddelbuettel/r2u/master/inst/scripts/add_cranapt_noble.sh | sudo bash
sudo apt install -y r-cran-constrainedkriging

Fast Ubuntu binaries via r2u (no compilation). The cranapt setup runs once and is skipped when it is already enabled.

bspm (used by r2u) also needs make: sudo apt install make

# enable the iucar/cran COPR if it is not already present, then install
ls /etc/yum.repos.d/*iucar*cran*.repo >/dev/null 2>&1 \
  || sudo dnf copr enable -y iucar/cran
sudo dnf install -y R-CRAN-constrainedKriging

RPMs from the iucar/cran COPR, rebuilt from CRAN.

For install.packages() integration in R, also: sudo dnf install R-CoprManager

# add the autoCRAN OBS repo (Tumbleweed) if it is missing, then install
zypper -q lr | grep -qi autoCRAN \
  || sudo zypper addrepo https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/languages:/R:/autoCRAN/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/devel:languages:R:autoCRAN.repo
sudo zypper install -y R-constrainedKriging

RPMs auto-built from CRAN on openSUSE OBS (Tumbleweed).
