In leogalhardo/leo_galhardo: Synthetic coordinates generator for data frames that contain location

'Syncoordinatesr' package

The syncoordinatesr is a package useful to generate synthetic coordinates for your database. Inspired by the research article of Thaís Paiva: https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/sim.6078. And the masters dissertation of Letícia Nunes: http://est.ufmg.br/portal/arquivos/mestrado/dissertacoes/dissertacao_Leticia_Silva_Nunes.pdf. The package contains functions able to generate synthetic coordinates using the method explained in both articles. This method simulates synthetic data, that are generated from specified probability distributions with the intention to be as close as possible of the original data, but without spreading the original information and don't compromising the final analysis.

Installing the package

The package, in this moment, can't be found on CRAN and your installation has to be done via github. To do this you must have already installed the package devtools so you can use the function install_github as exhibited below:

devtools::install_github("Syncoordinatesr/syncoordinatesr")
