What is Surfer?

Surfer’s sophisticated interpolation engine transforms your XYZ data into publication-quality maps. Surfer provides more gridding methods and more control over gridding parameters, including customized variograms, than any other software package on the market. You can also use grid files obtained from other sources, such as USGS DEM files or ESRI grid files. Display your grid as outstanding contour, 3D surface, 3D wireframe, watershed, vector, image, shaded relief, and post maps. Add base maps and combine map types to create the most informative display possible. Virtually all aspects of your maps can be customized to produce exactly the presentation you want. Generating publication quality maps has never been quicker or easier.

A massive operator for georreferenced statistics. Perfect for early stages of prospection research, mineral or element anomaly on soil, speciation research, and many geostatistical and biostatistical approaches. Saddly there is no Open-Source alternative to it as long as I know.
