nypoly

<p>A <code>SpatialPolygons</code> object for the
  New York leukemia data in <code>nydf</code>.  Note that the
  coordinates in the polygon have been projected to a
  different coordinate system (UTM, zone 18), but the
  order of the regions/polygons is the same as in
  <code>nydf</code>.</p>

Implements statistical methods for analyzing the counts of areal data, with a focus on the detection of spatial clusters and clustering.  The package has a heavy emphasis on spatial scan methods, which were first introduced by Kulldorff and Nagarwalla (1995) <doi:10.1002/sim.4780140809> and Kulldorff (1997) <doi:10.1080/03610929708831995>.
