Spatial forecast verification refers to verifying weather forecasts when the verification set (forecast and observations) is on a spatial field, usually a high-resolution gridded spatial field.  Most of the functions here require the forecast and observed fields to be gridded and on the same grid. For a thorough review of most of the methods in this package, please see Gilleland et al. (2009) <doi: 10.1175/2009WAF2222269.1> and for a tutorial on some of the main functions available here, see Gilleland (2022) <doi: 10.5065/4px3-5a05>.

Finite element modeling (FEM) uses meshes of triangles to define surfaces.
A surface within a triangle may be either linear or quadratic.
In the order one case each node in the mesh is associated with a basis
function and the basis is called the order one finite element basis.
In the order two case each edge mid-point is also associated with a basis
function.  Functions are provided for smoothing, density function estimation
point evaluation and plotting results.  Two papers illustrating the
finite element data analysis are Sangalli, L.M., Ramsay, J.O.,
Ramsay, T.O. (2013)<http://www.mox.polimi.it/~sangalli> and
