OUTMAP

is the name of the output raster map.

MapVariogramSurfacePnt

is the command to start the Variogram surface operation with a point map as input.

MapVariogramSurfaceRas

is the command to start the Variogram surface operation with a raster map as input.

InputPointMap

is the name of the input point map with a value domain; to use a domain value attribute column from an attribute table which is linked to an ID point map, use InputPointMap.Columnname.

InputRasterMap

is the name of the input point map with a value domain; to use a domain value attribute column from an attribute table which is linked to an ID point map, use InputPointMap.Columnname.

LagSpacing

for input point maps only: a parameter to specify the length in meters for the directional distance classes (lags) that should be used; 0 < real value < diagonal of point map. This also determines the pixel size of the pixels in the output map.

When this parameter is not specified for an input point map, a default lag spacing is provided based on the point density in the input point map as 0.5 Ö ((point map height * point map width) / number of points) .

For input raster maps, the lag spacing and thus the pixel size of the output map is determined by the pixel size of the input map.

Nr of Lags

is a parameter to specify the number of distance classes (lags) that should be used both in horizontal and in vertical direction away from the central pixel at the origin in the output map. This also determines the number of pixels in the output map. In principle, you can use 1 to 45 lags both for point maps and for raster maps (see also limitations below). The number of pixels in the output map is defined as (2 * nr of lags) - 1.

When this parameter is not specified, 10 lags are assumed; 10 lags result in an output map of 19 x 19 'pixels'.
