In addition to the output data set, the SIM2D procedure produces output objects as well. The SIM2D procedure output objects are the following:

• a default "Number of Observations" table that displays the number of observations read from the input data set and the number of observations used in the analysis.

• a map that shows the spatial distribution of the observations of the current VAR variable in the SIMULATE statement, in the case of conditional simulations. The observations are displayed by default with circled markers whose color indicates the VAR value at the corresponding location.

• a default table for each SIMULATE statement that summarizes the simulation specifications.

• a default table for each SIMULATE statement that shows the covariance model parameters for the corresponding simulation.

• plots of simulation outcome at each point of the specified output grid or at specified individual locations. You can produce more than one of these plots for every SIMULATE statement with styles that you can specify by using the available suboptions of the PLOTS=SIM option.

• a "Store Info" table with basic information about the input item store. This table is produced by default when you specify the RESTORE statement.

• a "Store Variables Information" table that describes the analysis variables of an input item store. The table is produced by default when you specify an item store with the RESTORE statement.

• a "Store Models Information" table with detailed information about the models and direction angles that are contained in an input item store. The table is produced by default when you specify an item store with the RESTORE statement.
