simulateFatalities

Places regularly spaced "simulated" or "expected" cases across the face of the map. The function finds the "addresses" of cases via orthogonal projection or simple proximity. These data are used to generate "expected" pump neighborhoods. The function relies on <code><a href="https://edzer.github.io/sp/reference/spsample.html">sp::spsample()</a></code> and <code><a href="https://edzer.github.io/sp/reference/SpatialPolygons.html">sp::Polygon()</a></code>.

Amends errors, augments data and aids analysis of John Snow's map
of the 1854 London cholera outbreak.
