Geostatisticians are data analysts who use statistical methods to analyze spatial data. Spatial data is data that has a geographic component, such as the location of a crime or the temperature at a particular point in time. Geostatisticians use their knowledge of statistics and geography to develop models that can predict the value of a variable at any location, even if there is no data available for that location.
