JuliaEarth / Geostats.jl
Projects that are alternatives of or similar to Geostats.jl
Project goals
- Design a comprehensive framework for geostatistics (or spatial statistics) in a modern programming language.
- Address the lack of a platform for scientific comparison of different geostatistical algorithms in the literature.
- Exploit modern hardware aggressively, including GPUs and computer clusters.
- Educate people outside of the field about the existence of geostatistics.
Installation
Get the latest stable release with Julia's package manager:
] add GeoStats
Documentation
- STABLE — most recently tagged version of the documentation.
- LATEST — in-development version of the documentation.
Tutorials
A set of Jupyter notebooks demonstrating the current functionality of the project is available in GeoStatsTutorials with an accompanying series of videos:
Below is a quick preview of the high-level API:
using GeoStats
using Plots
# data.csv:
# x, y, station, precip
# 25.0, 25.0, palo alto, 1.0
# 50.0, 75.0, redwood city, 0.0
# 75.0, 50.0, mountain view, 1.0
# read spatial data (e.g. geotable)
𝒯 = readgeotable("data.csv", coordnames=(:x,:y))
# define spatial domain (e.g. Cartesian grid)
𝒟 = CartesianGrid(100, 100)
# define estimation problem for precipitation
𝒫 = EstimationProblem(𝒯, 𝒟, :precip)
# choose a solver from the list of solvers
𝒮 = Kriging(
:precip => (variogram=GaussianVariogram(range=35.),)
)
# solve the problem
sol = solve(𝒫, 𝒮)
# plot the solution
contourf(sol)
