Spatial Interpolation

Spatial interpolation is used to predicts values for cells in a raster from a limited number of sample data points around it. We are studying streaming high frequency temperature data in Chicago retrieved from Array of Thing (AoT).

Kriging is a family of estimators used to interpolate spatial data. This family includes ordinary kriging, universal kriging, indicator kriging, co-kriging and others (Taken from Lefohn et al., 2005). The choice of which kriging to use depends on the characteristics of the data and the type of spatial model desired. The most commonly used method is ordinary kriging, which was selected for this study. Reference:

Setup

Retrieve the study area of this interactive spatial interpolation jupyter notebook

1) setting the environment, import the library

In [1]:
#!pip install pykrige
import osmnx as ox
%matplotlib inline
ox.config(log_console=True, use_cache=True)
#ox.__version__

2) we choose the Chicago as study area, download the distrct using osmnx, and save the dataset as shapefile

In [2]:
# from some place name, create a GeoDataFrame containing the geometry of the place
city = ox.gdf_from_place('Chicago, IL')
print (city)
# save the retrieved data as a shapefile
ox.save_gdf_shapefile(city)

Spatial Interpolation

The pykrige is a Kriging Toolkit for Python. The code supports 2D and 3D ordinary and universal kriging. Standard variogram models (linear, power, spherical, gaussian, exponential) are built in.

Use ordinary kriging to do the spatial interpolation

In order to run spatial interpolation, we should define the boundary for the Chicago. Get the bounday value from the shapefile.

In [7]:
import geopandas as gpd
Chicago_Boundary_Shapefile = './data/il-chicago/il-chicago.shp'
boundary = gpd.read_file(Chicago_Boundary_Shapefile)

# get the boundary of Chicago 
xmin, ymin, xmax, ymax = boundary.total_bounds

Generate the grids for longitude and lantitude, the number of bins is 100

In [8]:
xmin = xmin-0.01
xmax = xmax+0.01

ymin = ymin-0.01
ymax = ymax+0.01

grid_lon = np.linspace(xmin, xmax, 100)
grid_lat = np.linspace(ymin, ymax, 100)

Run the OrdinaryKriging method, the variogram_model is gaussian

In [9]:
OK = OrdinaryKriging(lons, lats, zdata, variogram_model='gaussian', verbose=True, enable_plotting=False,nlags=20)
z1, ss1 = OK.execute('grid', grid_lon, grid_lat)
print (z1)
