SAE Unit/area Models and Methods for Estimation in R
SUMMER is an R package providing an extensive collection of space-time smoothing and small area estimation methods for prevalence estimation using complex survey data, with a special focus on Demographic Health Surveys (DHS) data, and the estimation of child mortality using full birth history data. The package also provides a collection of plotting functions to visualize the estimates in space and time.
