\title{
Compute Spatial Variogram
}
\description{
Compute spatial (semi-)variogram of spatial data or residuals.
}
\usage{
variogram(krig, nint, plotit = TRUE, \dots)
}
\arguments{
\item{krig}{
trend-surface or kriging object with columns \code{x}, \code{y}, and \code{z}
}
\item{nint}{
number of bins used
}
\item{plotit}{
logical for plotting
}
\item{\dots}{
parameters for the plot
}}
\value{
\code{x} and \code{y} coordinates of the variogram and \code{cnt},
the number of pairs averaged per bin.
}
\section{Side Effects}{
Plots the variogram if \code{plotit = TRUE}
}
\details{
Divides range of data into \code{nint} bins, and computes the average squared
difference for pairs with separation in each bin. Returns results for
bins with 6 or more pairs.
