[R-sig-Geo] Spatial data interpolation on R

[jgarcia at ija.csic.es]

You should conduct a block kriging from the point sparse data to the
regular grid (the domain of the satellite images). Try, e.g., gstat

> (interpolating by kriging or other technique). Usage examples would be
> welcomed as well!
