Abstract
Sometimes observations in statistical analysis are not independent and typically are correlated with their spatial locations. In spatial statistics there are some methods to interpolate this kind of data. In this paper some of interpolators for spatial data will be studied. Then they will be evaluated and compared by means of mean square errors criteria. Finally it will be shown that kriging acts better than other methods such as spline, inverse distance, for interpolation of spatial data.
