Synopsis Geostatistics deal with quantitative data analysis specifically the application of statistical methodology to the exploration of geographic phenomena. Geostatistics is used extensively in a variety of fields including hydrology geology petroleum exploration weather analysis urban planning logistics and epidemiology. The mathematical basis for geostatistics derives from cluster analysis linear discriminant analysis and non parametric statistical tests and a variety of other subjects. Applications of geostatistics rely heavily on geographic information systems, particularly for the interpolation estimate of unmeasured points. Geographers are making notable contributions to the method of quantitative techniques. This book contains the fundamental and basic information of quantities geography and the selection of contents makes it an informative book for the students.
