Overview

About

Maintained by Claudia Gebhardt6 releasesCRAN page ↗

An implementation of maximum entropy sampling for spatial data is provided. An exact branch-and-bound algorithm as well as greedy and dual greedy heuristics are included.

Install

R (source archive)

url <- "https://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Archive/edesign/edesign_1.0-13.tar.gz"
pkgFile <- "edesign_1.0-13.tar.gz"
download.file(url, pkgFile)
install.packages(pkgFile, type = "source", repos = NULL)

This package is no longer on CRAN, so install.packages() cannot fetch it by name. This downloads the last archived source (1.0-13) and builds it locally. Install its dependencies first, and note that building from source needs the usual compiler toolchain.
