Variogram Calculation

Description

This function calculates (and plots) a variogram.

Usage

varioCalc(X, Y, el, max.dist = 300, title = "", km = TRUE, plot = TRUE)

Arguments

X X-coordinate
Y Y-coordinate
el vector or matrix with data values
max.dist a numerical value defining the maximum distance for the variogram. All pairs of locations separated for a distance larger than this value are ignored in the variogram calculation.
title title for the plot
km if TRUE the distances are given in km, otherwise the unit is m
plot if TRUE the variogram is plotted, otherwise only the parameters are returned
