Kriging is perfect for these purposes; more details on Wikipedia. There are only two drawbacks to the practical implementation:

This will greatly improve the accuracy of the colors, but will require a lot of effort, so it is postponed until at least the summer of 2024. Fortunately, no architectural changes will be required; the code was designed ready for this interpolation update.
