Variograms

Commonly, natural phenomena such as grade mineralization show spatial interdependence. In this sense, the so-called variograms can be used in order to identify the mathematical law that describes the spatial structure of a regionalized variable. This notebook aims to present an intuitive and interactive introduction to a key tool in geostatistics: the Variogram.
