Geostatistical Simulation Methods

Kriging and conditional simulation both produce smooth property maps that honor data points and the variogram, but differ in key ways: - Conditional simulation can generate multiple realizations, while kriging produces a single map. - Conditional simulation honors the data mean, variance and variogram, while kriging only honors the mean and variogram. - As the number of conditional simulation realizations increases, their mean converges to the kriging solution.
