Calculate Sample or Residual Variogram or Variogram Cloud

Description

Calculates the sample variogram from data, or in case of a linear model is given, for the residuals, with options for directional, robust, and pooled variogram, and for irregular distance intervals.

In case spatio-temporal data is provided, the function variogramST is called with a different set of parameters.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'gstat'
variogram(object, ...)
## S3 method for class 'formula'
variogram(object, locations = coordinates(data), data, ...)
## Default S3 method:
variogram(object, locations, X, cutoff, width = cutoff/15,
	alpha = 0, beta = 0, tol.hor = 90/length(alpha), tol.ver =
	90/length(beta), cressie = FALSE, dX = numeric(0), boundaries =
	numeric(0), cloud = FALSE, trend.beta = NULL, debug.level = 1,
	cross = TRUE, grid, map = FALSE, g = NULL, ..., projected = TRUE, 
	lambda = 1.0, verbose = FALSE, covariogram = FALSE, PR = FALSE, 
	pseudo = -1)
## S3 method for class 'gstatVariogram'
print(x, ...)
## S3 method for class 'variogramCloud'
print(x, ...)

Arguments

object

object of class gstat; in this form, direct and cross (residual) variograms are calculated for all variables and variable pairs defined in object; in case of variogram.formula, formula defining the response vector and (possible) regressors, in case of absence of regressors, use e.g. z~1; in case of variogram.default: list with for each variable the vector with responses (should not be called directly)

data

data frame where the names in formula are to be found

locations

spatial data locations. For variogram.formula: a formula with only the coordinate variables in the right hand (explanatory variable) side e.g. ~x+y; see examples.

For variogram.default: list with coordinate matrices, each with the number of rows matching that of corresponding vectors in y; the number of columns should match the number of spatial dimensions spanned by the data (1 (x), 2 (x,y) or 3 (x,y,z)).

...

any other arguments that will be passed to variogram.default (ignored)

X

(optional) list with for each variable the matrix with regressors/covariates; the number of rows should match that of the correspoding element in y, the number of columns equals the number of regressors (including intercept)

cutoff

spatial separation distance up to which point pairs are included in semivariance estimates; as a default, the length of the diagonal of the box spanning the data is divided by three.

width

the width of subsequent distance intervals into which data point pairs are grouped for semivariance estimates

alpha

direction in plane (x,y), in positive degrees clockwise from positive y (North): alpha=0 for direction North (increasing y), alpha=90 for direction East (increasing x); optional a vector of directions in (x,y)

beta

direction in z, in positive degrees up from the (x,y) plane;

optional a vector of directions

tol.hor

horizontal tolerance angle in degrees

tol.ver

vertical tolerance angle in degrees

cressie

logical; if TRUE, use Cressie”s robust variogram estimate; if FALSE use the classical method of moments variogram estimate

dX

include a pair of data points $y(s_1),y(s_2)$ taken at locations $s_1$ and $s_2$ for sample variogram calculation only when $||x(s_1)-x(s_2)|| < dX$ with and $x(s_i)$ the vector with regressors at location $s_i$, and $||.||$ the 2-norm. This allows pooled estimation of within-strata variograms (use a factor variable as regressor, and dX=0.5), or variograms of (near-)replicates in a linear model (addressing point pairs having similar values for regressors variables)

boundaries

numerical vector with distance interval upper boundaries; values should be strictly increasing

cloud

logical; if TRUE, calculate the semivariogram cloud

trend.beta

vector with trend coefficients, in case they are known. By default, trend coefficients are estimated from the data.

debug.level

integer; set gstat internal debug level

cross

logical or character; if FALSE, no cross variograms are computed when object is of class gstat and has more than one variable; if TRUE, all direct and cross variograms are computed; if equal to "ST", direct and cross variograms are computed for all pairs involving the first (non-time lagged) variable; if equal to "ONLY", only cross variograms are computed (no direct variograms).

formula

formula, specifying the dependent variable and possible covariates

x

object of class variogram or variogramCloud to be printed

grid

grid parameters, if data are gridded (not to be called directly; this is filled automatically)

map

logical; if TRUE, and cutoff and width are given, a variogram map is returned. This requires package sp. Alternatively, a map can be passed, of class SpatialDataFrameGrid (see sp docs)

g

NULL or object of class gstat; may be used to pass settable parameters and/or variograms; see example

projected

logical; if FALSE, data are assumed to be unprojected, meaning decimal longitude/latitude. For projected data, Euclidian distances are computed, for unprojected great circle distances (km). In variogram.formula or variogram.gstat, for data deriving from class Spatial, projection is detected automatically using is.projected

lambda

test feature; not working (yet)

verbose

logical; print some progress indication

pseudo

integer; use pseudo cross variogram for computing time-lagged spatial variograms? -1: find out from coordinates – if they are equal then yes, else no; 0: no; 1: yes.

covariogram

logical; compute covariogram instead of variogram?

PR

logical; compute pairwise relative variogram (does NOT check whether variable is strictly positive)

Value

If map is TRUE (or a map is passed), a grid map is returned containing the (cross) variogram map(s). See package sp.

In other cases, an object of class "gstatVariogram" with the following fields:

np

the number of point pairs for this estimate; in case of a variogramCloud see below

dist

the average distance of all point pairs considered for this estimate

gamma

the actual sample variogram estimate

dir.hor

the horizontal direction

dir.ver

the vertical direction

id

the combined id pair

If cloud is TRUE: an object of class variogramCloud, with the field np encoding the numbers of the point pair that contributed to a variogram cloud estimate, as follows. The first point is found by 1 + the integer division of np by the .BigInt attribute of the returned object, the second point by 1 + the remainder of that division. as.data.frame.variogramCloud returns no np field, but does the decoding into:

left

for variogramCloud: data id (row number) of one of the data pair

right

for variogramCloud: data id (row number) of the other data in the pair

In case of a spatio-temporal variogram is sought see variogramST for details.

Note

variogram.default should not be called by users directly, as it makes many assumptions about the organization of the data, that are not fully documented (but of course, can be understood from reading the source code of the other variogram methods)

Successfully setting gridded() <- TRUE may trigger a branch that will fail unless dx and dy are identical, and not merely similar to within machine epsilon.

Note

variogram.line is DEPRECATED; it is and was never meant as a variogram method, but works automatically as such by the R dispatch system. Use variogramLine instead.
