from an observations location to the location of the point being estimated (Burrough
and Mc Donnell 1998 ). The inverse distance can be raised to a power (e.g. linear,
squared and cubed) to model different geometries (e.g. line, area, volume) (Guan
et al. 1999 ). In a comparison of several different deterministic interpolation proce-
dures, Burrough and Mc Donnell ( 1998 ) and Mathes and Rasmussen ( 2006 ) found
that using IDW with a squared distance term yielded results most consistent with
