Teori Idw Dari Arcgis

The document summarizes how inverse distance weighted (IDW) interpolation works by calculating cell values as a weighted average of sample points, where the weight is based on inverse distance. It provides guidelines on proper sampling density and notes limitations such as inability to generate ridges/valleys not present in samples and isotropic influence. The document also describes handling of coincident points, use of barriers, processing time implications, and input data limitations.

Summary

Interpolates a raster surface from points using an inverse distance weighted (IDW) technique.

Usage

 The output value for a cell using inverse distance weighting (IDW) is limited to the range
of the values used to interpolate. Because IDW is a weighted distance average, the
average cannot be greater than the highest or less than the lowest input. Therefore, it
cannot create ridges or valleys if these extremes have not already been sampled (Watson
and Philip 1985).
 The best results from IDW are obtained when sampling is sufficiently dense with regard
to the local variation you are attempting to simulate. If the sampling of input points is
sparse or uneven, the results may not sufficiently represent the desired surface (Watson
and Philip 1985).
 The influence of an input point on an interpolated value is isotropic. Since the influence of
an input point on an interpolated value is distance related, IDW is not ridge preserving
(Philip and Watson 1982).
 Some input datasets may have several points with the same x,y coordinates. If the
values of the points at the common location are the same, they are considered duplicates
and have no effect on the output. If the values are different, they are considered
coincident points.
The various interpolation tools may handle this data condition differently. For example, in
some cases, the first coincident point encountered is used for the calculation; in other
cases, the last point encountered is used. This may cause some locations in the output
raster to have different values than what you might expect. The solution is to prepare
your data by removing these coincident points. The Collect Events tool in the Spatial
Statistics toolbox is useful for identifying any coincident points in your data.
 The barriers option is used to specify the location of linear features known to interrupt
the surface continuity. These features do not have z-values. Cliffs, faults, and
embankments are typical examples of barriers. Barriers limit the selected set of the input
sample points used to interpolate output z-values to those samples on the same side of
the barrier as the current processing cell. Separation by a barrier is determined by line-
of-sight analysis between each pair of points. This means that topological separation is
not required for two points to be excluded from each other's region of influence. Input
sample points that lie exactly on the barrier line will be included in the selected sample
set for both sides of the barrier.
 Barrier features are input as polyline features. IDW only uses the x,y coordinates for the
linear feature; therefore, it is not necessary to provide z-values for the left and right
sides of the barrier. Any z-values provided will be ignored.
 Using barriers will significantly extend the processing time.
 This tool has a limit of approximately 45 million input points. If your input feature class
contains more than 45 million points, the tool may fail to create a result. You can avoid
this limit by interpolating your study area in several pieces, making sure there is some
overlap in the edges, then mosaicking the results to create a single large raster dataset.
Alternatively, you can use a terrain dataset to store and visualize points and surfaces
comprised of billions of measurement points.
If you have the Geostatistical Analyst extension, you may be able to process larger
datasets with the version of the IDW tool available there.
 The input feature data must contain at least one valid field.
