The KRIGE2D Procedure

Syntax: KRIGE2D Procedure

The following statements are available in the KRIGE2D procedure:

The PREDICT and MODEL statements are hierarchical; the PREDICT statement is followed by a MODEL statement. If more than one MODEL statement is given, only the last one is used for the analysis. The MODEL statement following a PREDICT statement uses the variable and neighborhood specifications in that PREDICT statement.

You must specify at least one PREDICT statement and one MODEL statement. You must supply a single COORDINATES statement to identify the x and y coordinate variables in the input data set. You must also specify a single GRID statement to include the grid information.

Table 67.1 outlines the options available in PROC KRIGE2D classified by function.
