Basic model type
- Diffusive model
- Jump model
- Mosaic model
- Random set model
Sequential simulation
Outline of algorithms
1. Assign any hard data (n) to the grid
2. Define a random path visiting all nodes u in the grid
3. Loop over all nodes u_i
a. Construct a conditional distribution
Fz(u_i, z|(n+i-1)) = Pr(Z(u_i)<=z|(n+i-1))
b. Draw a simulated value z(u_i) from the conditional distribution
Fz(u_i, z|(n+i-1))
c. Add simulated value to data-set (n+i-1)
4. End simulation
The joint probability distribution
Sequential Gaussian simulation
Outline of the algorithms
1. Transform the sample data to standard normal scores
2. Assign the data (n) to the grid
3. Define a random path visiting all nodes u
4. Loop over all nodes u_i
a. Construct a conditional Gaussian distribution
b. Draw a simulated value z(u_i) from the conditional distribution
c. Add simulated value to data-set (n+i-1)
5. End simulation
6. Transform the entire simulation back to the original data histogram

Difference between Kriging and Simulation
Kriging
- produces just one map of estimates which is best in a statistical sense
- a global estimator, in that its estimate represents all the data within a defined area
- good to show smooth variations and underlying trends
Simulation
- a local estimator
- reproduces exactly measured data
- good at showing local variability
- provides any number of statistically equivalent maps
