R Documentation

Fits a Trend Surface by Generalized Least-squares

Description

Fits a trend surface by generalized least-squares.

Usage

surf.gls(np, covmod, x, y, z, nx = 1000, ...)

Arguments

np	degree of polynomial surface
covmod	function to evaluate covariance or correlation function
x	x coordinates or a data frame with columns x, y, z
y	y coordinates
z	z coordinates. Will supersede x$z
nx	Number of bins for table of the covariance. Increasing adds accuracy, and increases size of the object.
...	parameters for covmod

Value

list with components

beta	the coefficients
x
y
z	and others for internal use only.
