Hi,
nope, it is not supported.
Spatial interpolation as a classical GIS (geographical Informatioon
System) thing.
Hence, try vendors like MapInfo or Esri (ArcView). Both have
interpolation included.
If you want to do it on your own, look out for IDW (inverse distance
weigthing) or KRIGING, odr Splines.
Interpolation is a science of its own. For nice coloured pictures, IDW
usually works. However, this does not guarantee that you got the theory
right, menas that it is allowed to interpolate.
I would be interested in how you are proceeding with the interpolation.
Cheers
Christof
