Infos

The book is concerned with the statistical theory for locating spatial sensors. It bridges the gap between spatial statistics and optimum design theory. After introductions to those two fields the topics of exploratory designs and designs for spatial trend and variogram estimation are treated. A new methodology, so-called approximate information matrices, are employed to cope with the problem of correlated observations. A great number of relevant references are collected and put into a common perspective. The theoretical investigations are accompanied by a pratical perspective. The theoretical investigations are accompanied by a practical example, the redesign of an Upper-Austrian air pollution monitoring network. A reader should be able to find respective theory and recommendations on how to efficiently plan a specific purpose spatial monitoring network. The revised edition contains additional material and exercises.
TOC: Introduction.- Fundamentals of Spatial Statistics.- Fundamentals of Experimental Design.- Exploratory Designs.- Designs for Spatial Trend Estimation.- Multipurpose Designs Including Designs for Variogram Fitting.- Appendix.- List of Figures.- Author Index.- Subject Index.
