After clustering, the values of M binary categorical variables (c/wy - clujf) are defined for each observation at a location in space using the indicator transformation (Fig. 3.2). Herewith, each observation point is assigned a categorical variable c/m ( cluster number ) by setting  

N(h) is the number of cluster variable values z(x, + h), z( ) separated by the distance vector h. The exponential variogram model is given by
