Modeling and Exploring Multivariate Spatial Variation: A Test Procedure for Isotropy of Multivariate Spatial Data

Giovanna Jona-Lasinio

Journal of Multivariate Analysis, 2001, vol. 77, issue 2, 295-317

Abstract: In this paper an exploratory technique based on the diagonalization of cross-variogram matrices is described. Through the definition of a model for the analysis and simulation of multivariate spatial data, a test procedure for the assumption of isotropy of multivariate spatial data is proposed. Applications to simulated and real data are reported.
