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

The 'SaTScan'(TM) <https://www.satscan.org> software uses spatial and space-time scan statistics to detect and evaluate spatial and space-time clusters. 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'.
