A Certe R Package for Geographic Information Science • certegis

This is a Certe R package for geographic information science (GIS), using the sf package and Dutch reference data.

You can read the manual with explanation about its functions here.

About the ‘certedata’ universe

These are R packages developed by Certe, a non-profit organisation for integrated medical diagnostics and advice for primary and secondary healthcare. Certe provides high-quality medical diagnostics and related products and services for healthcare providers and their patients. Hospitals, (general) practitioners, midwives and thus hundreds of thousands of people have relied on Certe’s care for many years.

Their department of Medical Epidemiology, which developed these R packages, conducts (and develops new methods for) medical data analyses, for both routine workflows and scientific research. For all our packages, please visit our GitHub organisation overview. Our R packages are not on CRAN since their use is primarily intended for own staff, but they are publicly available to support open science.

Install

All our R packages are published here at R-universe, allowing anyone to install and update the packages using common methods, such as the RStudio menu bar or install.packages(). To add the Certe Medical Epidemiology R-universe to your existing repositories, run:

options(repos = c(
  CerteMedEpi = "https://certe-medical-epidemiology.r-universe.dev",
  options()$repos)

You can now install any Certe R package, e.g.:

# our 'loader package' certedata installs all Certe R packages this way:
install.packages("certedata", dependencies = TRUE)

# or install a specific package:
install.packages("certegis")
install.packages("certeplot2")
install.packages("certestats")
