abstract: Tools for producing climate-health indicators and supporting official statistics
  from health and climate data. Implements analytical workflows for temperature-related
  mortality, wildfire smoke exposure, air pollution, suicides related to extreme heat,
  malaria, and diarrhoeal disease outcomes, with utilities for descriptive statistics,
  model validation, attributable fraction and attributable number estimation, relative
  risk estimation, minimum mortality temperature estimation, and plotting for reporting.
  These six indicators are endorsed by the United Nations Statistical Commission for
  inclusion in the Global Set of Environment and Climate Change Statistics. Implemented
  methods include distributed lag non-linear models (DLNM), quasi-Poisson time-series
  regression, case-crossover analysis, Bayesian spatio-temporal models using the Integrated
  Nested Laplace Approximation ('INLA'), and multivariate meta-analysis for sub-national
  estimates. The package is based on methods developed in the Standards for Official
  Statistics on Climate-Health Interactions (SOSCHI) project <https://climate-health.officialstatistics.org>.
