Abstract
Summary
Satellite information opened new scenarios for planet surface mineral exploration. Hyperspectral information brought by sensors on board potentially help identifying and measuring concentrations of an element if an accurate calibration is done, based on available ground sampling. The correlation study is one of the most delicate phases when using satellite images for improving the models’ quality of surface distribution of a target variable. Geostatistics offers a wide variety of powerful tools for a deep study of these correlations. A short case study is reported as an example where it was identified the most correlated spatial component by a multivariate structural analysis.
