Abstract
This work is concerned with the problem of estimating parameters of spatial quadratic models by the Bayesian technique (SQDM). This technique involves prior information on the first and second moments of the parameters, where its estimation model is called the Bayesian quadratic unbiased estimator. The results of the estimation are compared with the estimates of minimum-norm quadratic unbiased estimators.
