rsatscan: Tools for Running the External 'SaTScan' Software using R Classes and Methods

With the 'rsatscan' package, you can run the external 'SaTScan' software from within R using R data formats. To successfully select appropriate parameter settings within 'rsatscan', you must first learn 'SaTScan'.
