The software quickly calculates: (a) the mean value and the standard deviation of all the measurement values; (b) the Log-Normal distribution; (c) the Gaussian distribution; (d) the deviations from the Log-Normal and Gaussian distributions in terms of the Kolmogoroff-Smirnov and Chi-square tests; (e) skewness; and (f) excess of the measured distribution.
In addition, we assume that both the spatial and the unstructured variability have Gaussian distributions, which are independent in the latter case.
