Stuth et al.: Figure 4: Using co-kriging to derive forage maps

This image represents how the geostatistical technique of co-kriging can be used to combine point data from small areas (PHYGROW samples) and combine them with regional NDVI data in order to extrapolate and map forage conditions over large landscapes. conceptual schematic showing the different data layers that are combined to extrapolate and map forage conditions over large areas.
