GSLIB is a collection of Fortran programs for geostatistical modeling. While not a direct Excel add-in, its output is often processed and visualized in Excel, and custom VBA scripts might be used for integration.

- Widely used and respected geostatistical algorithms, open-source (Fortran code), powerful for spatial data modeling in earth sciences.
- Not a direct Excel add-in (standalone programs), requires understanding of geostatistics and GSLIB's command-line interface, data integration with Excel is typically manual (file import/export) or via custom scripts.
Best for:
- Geostatisticians, mining engineers, petroleum geologists, and environmental scientists who use GSLIB for spatial data analysis and modeling, often using Excel for pre/post-processing of GSLIB data.
