The goal of this paper is to give confidence regions for the excursion set of a spatial function above a given threshold from repeated noisy observations on a fine grid of fixed locations. Given an asymptotically Gaussian estimator of the target function, a pair of data-dependent nested excursion sets are constructed that are sub- and super-sets of the true excursion set, respectively, with a desired confidence. Asymptotic coverage probabilities are determined via a multiplier bootstrap method, ...[more]
