An R package to (pre-) process HDSS demographic data from the INDEPTH network
This is a collection of R functions to work with demographic datasets curated by the INDEPTH network and available from the INDEPTH data repository. HDSS (health and demographic surveillance system) data files can be read into R and pre-processed, their content can be checked for quality issues, and events, event patterns and transitions can be extracted and summarised before further processing.
To install R.HDSS
from github, you need the devtools
package in your R environment. If you have not done so yet, start a fresh R session and run
install.packages("devtools")
This will install the developer tools and their dependencies. Now you can easily install R.HDSS
via:
devtools::install_github("alexploner/R.HDSS")
Load the package and open its vignette to get an overview and demonstration of the basic use of R.HDSS
:
library(R.HDSS)
vignette("R.HDSS_Introduction")
