VARIOGRAM Procedure

The STORE statement requests that the procedure save the context and results of the semivariogram model fitting analysis in an item store. The contents of item stores produced by PROC VARIOGRAM can be processed only with the KRIGE2D or the SIM2D procedure. After you save results in an item store, you can use them at a later time without having to refit the model.

The ID statement specifies which variable to include for identification of the observations in the OUTPAIR= and the OUTACWEIGHTS= output data sets. The ID statement variable is also used for labels and tool tips in the observations plot.

PROC VARIOGRAM now provides a Moran plot, which is a scatter plot of standardized observed values against weighted averages.
