Please consider using the R-sig-geo list for kriging questions. In fact, using str() would show that your z is badly impacted by your misuse of the c() function - this was almost certainly not what you wanted to do.
Constructing your coordinates by using seq() is always a bad idea, as you need to be very careful in assigning position to data. Start by making sure that your (long, lat) matrix of coordinates is correctly associated with the data (you speak of a matrix with missing values - think of it as a vector, or use an sp function to convert from "image" format to a SpatialGridDataFrame, and coerce to a SpatialPixelsDataFrame). In fact, if your data are on a grid, it is more than puzzling for what purpose you want to use kriging interpolation, unless to hope to change resolution, or fill in the missing values. You need to think much more carefully about your data representations. Those used in the gstat package were chosen to avoid slip-ups with input data (and output data), and use by default classes defined in the sp package. Have you consulted the "Spatial" task view on CRAN? Hope this helps, Roger karine heerah wrote: > > > Hi everybody, > > > > I have a longitude vector and a latitude one.
