Who are we? |
“Geostatistics” is the generic name for a
family of techniques which are used for mapping of surfaces from limited
sample data. First developed 40 years ago, these methods are now widely used
in the minerals industry and have disseminated out into many other fields
where 'spatial' data is studied. Check out an early article by Isobel
Clark (only 500 words!) Geostokos (EcoSSe) Ltd was set up in late
1998 to provide teaching materials, software and advice for non-specialists
wishing to use and understand geostatistical methods in their own fields of
application. The textbook ‘Practical Geostatistics 2000’ - an updated and
much extended version of the original ‘Practical Geostatistics’ (1979) - was
first released in August 2000. ‘Answers to the Exercises’ was
first released December 2000. Planned additions to the series include ‘Case
Studies’ and Volume 2: Simulation and more complex kriging approaches. |

The practical application side of
EcoSSe is supported by over 30 years of experience – both teaching and
practice -- from Dr Isobel Clark, the
author of the definitive textbook "Practical Geostatistics"
(published in 1979) and co-author of "Practical Geostatistics 2000"
and "Practical Geostatistics 2000, Answers to the Exercises". |

Practical
experience and a lively academic mind are provided by Dr William V Harper (right), who has 20
years experience in the application of statistical and geostatistical
techniques to environmental and pollution problems as well as a solid
grounding in simulation and optimising methods. Dr Harper is co-author of
"Practical Geostatistics 2000" and "Practical Geostatistics
2000, Answers to the Exercises". |
