The locality condition means that each data point influences the interpolated surface only up to a certain distance. Equivalently, the value at a given point will be similar to the values at nearby points, and distant points do not continue to influence one another.
Conditions: Presented as a basic condition fulfilled by almost all interpolation methods.; Applies to local interpolation methods.

Interpolation is said to have no unique solution because, given only the requirement that a function pass through the data points, there exist infinitely many different functions that can satisfy this exact condition. The difficulty of the problem lies not in the existence of an interpolant, but in selecting among the many valid functions.
Conditions: A finite set of data points is given.; No extra constraints beyond passage through the points are imposed.

Local interpolation methods differ from global ones by using only a small subset n of the total m available data points to compute the value at a specific grid point. Global methods, by contrast, typically use all m data points to construct a single continuous function for the entire domain.
Conditions: The method is a local interpolation technique.; The total number of available data points is m.; The number of points in the local subset is n, where n<m.
