Abstract: For intrinsic random processes, an appropriate estimation of the variogram is required to derive accurate predictions, when proceeding through the kriging methodology. The resulting function must satisfy the conditionally negative definiteness condition, both to guarantee a solution for the kriging equation system and to derive a non-negative prediction error. Assessment of the resulting function is typically addressed through graphical tools, which are not necessarily conclusive, thus making it advisable to perform tests to check the adequateness of the fitted variogram.
