Abstract

Prediction of spatial attributes has attracted significant research interest in recent years. It is challenging especially when spatial data contain errors and missing values. Geostatistical estimators are used to predict the missing attribute values from the observed values of known surrounding data points, a general form of which is referred as kriging in the field of geographic information system and remote sensing. The proposed semantic kriging ( SemK) tries to blend the semantics of spatial features (of surrounding data points) with ordinary kriging (OK) method for prediction of the attribute. Experimentation has been carried out with land surface temperature data of four major metropolitan cities in India. It shows that SemK outperforms the OK and most of the existing spatial interpolation methods.
