Abstract
In this article a geostatistical model is presented in order to spatially characterize the PM10 pollutant behavior in the city of Medellin, Colombia. The data has been taken from nine monitoring locations in monthly average value (µg/m3) for the period from January 2003 to December 2007. Different models were evaluated by cross-validation tests. The best model is a j-bessel. The model parameters are calculated using ANOVA tests for quarterly groupings. Maps of the pollutant’s spatial characterization are obtained with ordinary Kriging and GIS.
