Description: Implements statistical methods for analyzing the counts of
        areal data, with a focus on the detection of spatial clusters
        and clustering.  The package has a heavy emphasis on spatial
        scan methods, which were first introduced by Kulldorff and
        Nagarwalla (1995) <doi:10.1002/sim.4780140809> and Kulldorff
        (1997) <doi:10.1080/03610929708831995>.
