Abstract
Systems and methods for characterizing a subsurface formation include: measuring a property of the subsurface formation at a plurality of locations; storing values of the property of the subsurface formation at the plurality of locations; defining a distance of influence for the property in the subsurface formation based on the property and on a degree of heterogeneity of the subsurface formation; identifying clusters of locations that are located within the distance of influence of each other; for each cluster identified, calculating an average value of the property of the subsurface formation in the cluster; for each cluster identified, replacing multiple values of the property and locations of the identified cluster with the average value of the property of the subsurface formation in the cluster at a single location; and calculating summary statistics of the reduced data set.
