geomod

The 'geomod' does spatial prediction of the Geotechnical soil properties. It predicts the spatial distribution of Geotechnical properties of soil e.g. shear strength, permeability, plasticity index, Standard Penetration Test (SPT) counts, etc. The output of the prediction takes the form of a map or a series of maps. It uses the interpolation technique where a single or statistically “best” estimate of spatial occurrence soil property is determined. The interpolation is based on both the sampled data and a variogram model for the spatial correlation of the sampled data. The single estimate is produced by a Kriging technique.
