Hi Dafne
If you going to look at GSLIB (with its FORTRAN code), then this is also useful:
Goovaerts P (2009) AUTO-IK: A 2D indicator kriging program for the automated non-parametric modeling of local uncertainty in earth sciences. Comput Geosci 35:1255-1270

Dear Edzer,
yes it is exactly what I meant. Thanks for the confirmation that it is not yet implemented in gstat. I will have a look to gslib and the book.

Thanks a lot

Dafne
