NORMALITY TEST
HISTOGRAM
BOX PLOT
Surfer-Basics
General procedure
Check data consistency and plausability!
Make a scatter plot (e.g. in Excel or in Surfer as post map)
Check data point distribution (spatial and statistical)
Decide which interpolation methods could be appropiate
Do a variogram analysis (even if you dont plan to use Kriging)
Interpolate (simple or Kriging) and visualize
Cross-validation / Krige standard deviation and discussion of results
Interpolation via
Grid-> Data
Properties
Be sure to choose the right
column! (residuals in xv
(.dat) result file you saved in
the Cross validate sub menu)
Number of classes
Choose a Binning Method
or better user defined:
define symmetric classes
according to your data range
Grid data choose data click cross validate choose a storage location save as .dat
Copy the data into an excel sheet calculate the last column
Geostatistics Anisotropy
Check data set for anisotropy
Go to tab Experimental
General settings
Max lag distance / Number of lags
Change scale vertically to avoid
flipping of axis scale
Geostatistics Kriging
Kriging Interpolation (after finishing semi-variogram fitting)
Grid -> Data
Gridding Method: Kriging
Advanced Options
Geostatistics Kriging
Choose variogram model
Manual input of variogram model settings (Add, choose type and parameters)
Better: choose existing variogram Get variogram and select one contained in Surfer
project (note: if you have multiple variograms in your project, name them on the left side
of program window)
Geostatistics Kriging
Visualization
Different possibilities
-> Map -> New
Visualization
Properties
e.g. filled contours
Properties -> Levels -> click on Fill
Change labeling properties
Visualization
Stacking of maps
On the object manager
e.g. drag the contour-map into the 3Dmodel section
