Hi to all.
I made some
research about this issue and found some helpful information (maybe only for me,
because I’m not an expert in this field). Automap mainly depends on gstat. In a
very helpful book (Bivand, Pebesma, and Gómez-Rubio 2008. Applied Spatial
data Analysis with R), borrowed from a friend of mine, I found this example for
performing Indicator Kriging with gstat library:

ind.f <- I(zinc < 500) ~ 1
 ind.fit <- fit.variogram(variogram(ind.f,
meuse), vgm(1, "Sph", 800, 1))
 ind.kr <- krige(ind.f, meuse, meuse.grid,
ind.fit)
[using ordinary kriging]

The continuous variable is transformed into a binary one (TRUE/FALSE)
and used in the interpolation process.
I used a similar procedure with the function “autoKrige”
in automap and got the prediction map with no error message.
I suppose everything went well
Cheers.

Oggetto: Indicator Kriging in automap



Dear list,
What parameter set allows one to perform automatically Indicator Kriging in automap?
