Σύνοψη	Global Universal Kriging is a geostatistical interpolation method that models a spatially varying trend (drift) as a deterministic function of coordinates and uses the entire dataset to fit both the trend coefficients and the residual variogram simultaneously. It produces optimal linear unbiased predictions together with pointwise estimation uncertainty, accounting for a large-scale spatial gradient across the full study region.	Universal kriging generalizes ordinary kriging to data whose mean varies systematically across space — a spatial trend or 'drift'. It models the mean as a function of the coordinates (or covariates) and krigs the residuals, so it can interpolate variables that drift in a preferred direction, such as temperature falling with latitude or a pollutant gradient, while still returning prediction variances.
