povmap (version 1.0.1)

Extension to the 'emdi' Package

Description

The R package 'povmap' supports small area estimation of means and poverty headcount rates. It adds several new features to the 'emdi' package (see "The R Package emdi for Estimating and Mapping Regionally Disaggregated Indicators" by Kreutzmann et al. (2019) ). These include new options for incorporating survey weights, ex-post benchmarking of estimates, two additional transformations, several new convenient functions to assist with reporting results, and a wrapper function to facilitate access from 'Stata'.
