HawaSpatial - Holistic and Areal Weighted Analysis for Global Development
A professional-grade, multi-'sectoral' platform designed
for sub-national monitoring of global development indicators.
Optimized for large-scale household surveys including 'DHS',
'MICS', 'MIS', 'IHBS', 'SPA', and 'LSMS', the package provides
a comprehensive workflow covering Descriptive, Diagnostic,
Predictive, and Prescriptive analytics. Key functionalities
include a 'Spatial Equalizer' for seamless data integration, 17
Exploratory Spatial Data Analysis ('ESDA') methods, Small Area
Estimation ('SAE') via 'Fay-Herriot' models, Spatial
Econometrics ('SAR'/'SEM'), and 4-stage hierarchical multilevel
modeling using the 'glmmTMB' engine. It enables researchers and
policymakers to identify geographic 'hotspots', quantify
spatial inequality ('SDG' 10), and generate publication-ready
reports.
