Buy from FlipkartThis book aims to present the most recent advancements in geostatistical modeling, the spatial variability of soil resources, and the creation of digital soil maps using R and GIS. Furthermore, the potential applications of these techniques in agricultural resource management are explored in detail. The book covers the following key areas:
Fundamentals of spatial processes and geostatistics · Field soil sampling using GIS and spatial data handling · Spatial variability analysis using semi variogram approach · Introduction to ‘GSTAT’ package of R and QGIS · Kriging technique and other advanced geostatistical approaches · Procedures of preparing digital soil maps in R · Assessment of uncertainty and error of digital soil maps · Case studies on digital soil mapping
