Interpolator

The Interpolator turns scattered point data into a smooth surface on a regular grid. Grids from different datasets line up with each other, which makes them comparable over time.

Open it from the Plugins button (the flask icon at the left of the farm map), which is shown to the farm's Owner, Administrators and Editors on a desktop or tablet. The plugin opens as a full page; Back to farm returns to the map.

#Steps

1. Choose the dataset to interpolate.
2. Optionally pick Boundary blocks on the map to limit the surface to those blocks.
3. Under Interpolate by, choose the header to interpolate. Only numeric headers are listed.
4. Run the interpolation, adjust the name of the result if you like, and click Add to Every.Farm.

For a one-click version with outlier removal built in, use Magic Map from a dataset's own drawer.

#Video

The video was recorded on an earlier version of the plugin, so the screens look different; the idea is the same.
