Abstract
The present invention is a method of generating a model of a random field which has directionally varying continuity. First, a tentative model for the random field is specified. Second, connected strings of nodes within the model are identified. Third, a spectral simulation on each of the strings of nodes is performed to determine updated values for the random field. Finally, the tentative model is updated with the data values from the spectral simulations.
