Introduction to Spatial Analysis for Infectious Diseases

Welcome to the Introduction of Spatial Analysis for Infectious diseases tutorial pages. In this part of the workshop we aim to teach basic concepts, skills and tools for working with data so that you can get more done in less time, and with less pain. The lessons here focus mainly on the use of R and QGIS.

The main sections of this workshop are designed to be introductory for participants with little to no programming experience. The advanced section taught in R for Geostatistical Modelling using R-INLA requires participants to have some statistical knowledge, some understanding of Bayesian statistics and some prior knowledge of spatial data.
