epidemos

epidemos is a collection of useful tools for epidemiological analysis that is still work in progress. Up to know, the published beta version includes functions primarily focussing on the data collection/scraping process. In order to facilitate that process, epidemos provides APIs to different public sources of large epidemiological datasets such as the Global Health Data Exchange (GHDx).

Installation

You can install epidemos from github via:

# install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("schliebs/epidemos")
