Collecting Spatial Data: Optimum Design of Experiments for Random Fields (Contributions to Statistics) - Softcover

 
9783790813333: Collecting Spatial Data: Optimum Design of Experiments for Random Fields (Contributions to Statistics)

Synopsis

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 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.

Review

From the reviews of the third edition:

"Collecting Spatial Data signifies ... the state of the art of the design of spatial networks. ... the monograph is well focused on the important problem of spatial sampling. ... The book will continue to be a stalwart reference for practitioners in the field of spatial estimation and a thorough introduction for graduate students in the field. This third edition nicely fulfills the aim ... of providing an overview of classical and recent methods for the efficient collection of spatial data." (Michael Manton, Eos, Vol. 89 (15), 2008)

From the Back Cover

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. Special attention is devoted to describing new methodologies 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 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 third edition takes into account the rapid development in the area of spatial statistics by including new relevant research and references. The revised edition contains additional material on design for detecting spatial dependence and for estimating parametrized covariance functions.
