Overview

About

Maintained by Christopher PrenerFirst published 2025-01-292 releasesCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗

Provides a unified framework to building Area Deprivation Index (ADI), Social Vulnerability Index (SVI), and Neighborhood Deprivation Index (NDI) deprivation measures and accessing related data from the U.S. Census Bureau such as Gini coefficient data. Tools are also available for calculating percentiles, quantiles, and for creating clear map breaks for data visualization.

Release

# enable cranapt (r2u) if it is not already set up, then install
grep -rqs r2u.stat.illinois.edu /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ \
  || curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eddelbuettel/r2u/master/inst/scripts/add_cranapt_noble.sh | sudo bash
sudo apt install -y r-cran-deprivater

Fast Ubuntu binaries via r2u (no compilation). The cranapt setup runs once and is skipped when it is already enabled.

bspm (used by r2u) also needs make: sudo apt install make

# enable the iucar/cran COPR if it is not already present, then install
ls /etc/yum.repos.d/*iucar*cran*.repo >/dev/null 2>&1 \
  || sudo dnf copr enable -y iucar/cran
sudo dnf install -y R-CRAN-deprivateR

RPMs from the iucar/cran COPR, rebuilt from CRAN.

For install.packages() integration in R, also: sudo dnf install R-CoprManager

# add the autoCRAN OBS repo (Tumbleweed) if it is missing, then install
zypper -q lr | grep -qi autoCRAN \
  || sudo zypper addrepo https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/languages:/R:/autoCRAN/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/devel:languages:R:autoCRAN.repo
sudo zypper install -y R-deprivateR

RPMs auto-built from CRAN on openSUSE OBS (Tumbleweed).
