The software also depends on ramptools, ramp.xds and SimBA.

Locations

If you want to work with ramp.uganda, please configure a file, called my_paths.yaml. It lives in the same directory as this file, README.md. It holds the local paths to Box/RAMP and the ramp.uganda github repository. It also defines the location of the website Malaria in Uganda.

Data

Several data elements have been imported into ramp.uganda

• district_dir - a table with the names of all Uganda districts and a directory name for each one
• region_dir- a table with the names of all Uganda regions and a directory name for each one
• uga_itn - a table describing mass ITN distributions
• uga_irs - a table describing IRS
• district_adjacency - an adjacency matrix for all Uganda districts
• pfpr_by_district - the PfPR time series, from Box, imported in a standard form

Functions

Several functions have been written to make it easier to use these data objects. This is also the home for the functions that support Malaria in Uganda, the website that disseminates information. All functions and data objects are listed in the reference index, and the documentation can be accessed in R. For example:

?get_district_pfpr
?get_one_district
