Abstract
This study was conducted to compare the performance of three different spatial analysis models: Inverse Distance Weighted (IDW), Ordinary Kriging, and Regularized Spline interpolation technique to determine the best fit model representing Peak Ground Acceleration (PGA) in West Java Province, Indonesia. The three models are commonly used in spatial visualization, but have different calculation methods. The calculations were performed using available formulas while the spatial modeling was conducted using the algorithms in GIS software. Meanwhile, the accuracy of the spatial model and factual calculation was determined through the Root Mean Square Error (RMSE). The results showed differences for both spatial distribution and maximum and minimum values for each model. However, IDW was observed to be the model which approaches the factual value of the PGA calculation as indicated by its RMSE value of 0.772352 in comparison with the 7.169879 (Ordinary Kriging) and 1.140802 (Regularized Spline).
