Methodological review demonstrates spatial estimation frameworks in geological data, highlighting quantitative modeling tools for spatially correlated natural phenomena.

Key Points

To outline the theoretical foundations, computational workflows, and practical methodologies of geostatistics for characterizing spatially distributed attributes.
Reviewed core spatial statistical frameworks including exploratory data analysis, spatial continuity characterization, and variogram modeling.
Synthesized spatial prediction techniques with a focus on linear estimation algorithms, including ordinary and simple kriging.
Demonstrated that modeling spatial autocorrelation provides more reliable spatial predictions than conventional non-spatial interpolation approaches.
Established systematic workflows for quantifying local estimation variance and uncertainty across spatially heterogeneous geological domains.
