rGeo vs. gstat

Dear list members I'm very new to R but a little informed about geostatistics. As I was looking for possibilities of geostatistical analysis in R I encountered at least two very interesting packages: Rgeo and gstat And of course I'm wondering now about the one which fits better my needs which are the comparison of spatial data (insect parasitism rates) for different fields in which we collected data.
Christian, I too find these two packages very interesting. Another package that you might find interesting besides geoR is geoRglm. However, you've told us too little about what your problem is to give you advise about which methods to use, and where to find them. You will find even more packages for geostatistical analysis on the spatial task view: R home page -> CRAN -> CRAN mirror -> Task Views -> Spatial. Best regards, -- Edzer
