Plots an empirical semi-variogram of the residuals from the spatial linear model with the fitted parametric model as a curve overtop of the binned points. By default, the empirical semi-variogram only shows distances that are less than or equal to the maximum distance in the data set divided by 2. Therefore, it's possible that the REML-fitted model will not "fit" the points perfectly.
# S3 method for slmfit
