Input data

Membership functions for preparation of the aggregation

The first step is to select "Project" / "Load Input File" from the background window and to specify the name of the input file in the appearing file requester. Then the contents of the management window changes to:

By clicking on the "kriging window" icon - bottom right of each of the management window's items - the user opens a so-called "kriging window". A detailed examination of these windows follows later in this example (at the discussion of the results of the aggregation). The kriging windows provide a two-dimensional display of the input data, shown in the following graphics.

These graphics use isolines to display the most possible value (see Kriging Basics / Theoretical concepts and 2D spatial viewing). The density of cyan and magenta points indicates the fuzziness of the data: Darker regions have a larger bandwith of values. The small squares show where crisp data points are located, the triangles show the location of the fuzzy input data points (and small "u"s indicate undefined values (positions where other parameters have a value or where an "undef" has been assigned in the input data file)).
Compare the graphics to the input file shown on the previous page.
