RSurveillance - Design and Analysis of Disease Surveillance Activities
A range of functions for the design and analysis of
disease surveillance activities. These functions were
originally developed for animal health surveillance activities
but can be equally applied to aquatic animal, wildlife, plant
and human health surveillance activities. Utilities are
included for sample size calculation and analysis of
representative surveys for disease freedom, risk-based studies
for disease freedom and for prevalence estimation. This package
is based on Cameron A., Conraths F., Frohlich A., Schauer B.,
Schulz K., Sergeant E., Sonnenburg J., Staubach C. (2015). R
package of functions for risk-based surveillance. Deliverable
