This package provides tools for solving common geocaching puzzle types, and other Geocaching-related tasks.

API bindings to the Geospatial Data Abstraction Library ('GDAL', <https://gdal.org>). Implements the GDAL Raster and Vector Data Models. Bindings are implemented with Rcpp modules. Exposed C++ classes and stand-alone functions wrap much of the GDAL API and provide additional functionality. Calling signatures resemble the native C, C++ and Python APIs provided by the GDAL project. Class GDALRaster encapsulates a GDALDataset and its raster band objects. Class GDALVector encapsulates an OGRLayer and the GDALDataset that contains it. Initial bindings are provided to the unified gdal command line interface added in GDAL 3.11. C++ stand-alone functions provide bindings to most GDAL "traditional" raster and vector utilities, including OGR facilities for vector geoprocessing, several algorithms, as well as the Geometry API ('GEOS via GDAL headers), the Spatial Reference Systems API, and methods for coordinate transformation. Bindings to the Virtual Systems Interface ('VSI') API implement standard file system operations abstracted for URLs, cloud storage services, Zip'/'GZip'/'7z'/'RAR', in-memory files, as well as regular local file systems. This provides a single interface for operating on file system objects that works the same for any storage backend. A custom raster calculator evaluates a user-defined R expression on a layer or stack of layers, with pixel x/y available as variables in the expression. Raster combine() identifies and counts unique pixel combinations across multiple input layers, with optional raster output of the pixel-level combination IDs. Basic plotting capability is provided for raster and vector display. gdalraster leans toward minimalism and the use of simple, lightweight objects for holding raw data. Currently, only minimal S3 class interfaces have been implemented for selected R objects that contain spatial data. gdalraster may be useful in applications that need scalable, low-level I/O, or prefer a direct GDAL API.

The first major functionality is to compute the bias in regression coefficients of misspecified linear gene-environment interaction models. The most generalized function for this objective is GE_bias(). However GE_bias() requires specification of many higher order moments of covariates in the model. If users are unsure about how to calculate/estimate these higher order moments, it may be easier to use GE_bias_normal_squaredmis(). This function places many more assumptions on the covariates (most notably that they are all jointly generated from a multivariate normal distribution) and is thus able to automatically calculate many of the higher order moments automatically, necessitating only that the user specify some covariances. There are also functions to solve for the bias through simulation and non-linear equation solvers; these can be used to check your work. Second major functionality is to implement the Bootstrap Inference with Correct Sandwich (BICS) testing procedure, which we have found to provide better finite-sample performance than other inference procedures for testing GxE interaction. More details on these functions are available in Sun, Carroll, Christiani, and Lin (2018) <doi:10.1111/biom.12813>.

The geohabnet package is designed to perform a geographically or spatially explicit risk analysis of habitat connectivity. Xing et al (2021) <doi:10.1093/biosci/biaa067> proposed the concept of cropland connectivity as a risk factor for plant pathogen or pest invasions. As the functions in geohabnet were initially developed thinking on cropland connectivity, users are recommended to first be familiar with the concept by looking at the Xing et al paper. In a nutshell, a habitat connectivity analysis combines information from maps of host density, estimates the relative likelihood of pathogen movement between habitat locations in the area of interest, and applies network analysis to calculate the connectivity of habitat locations. The functions of geohabnet are built to conduct a habitat connectivity analysis relying on geographic parameters (spatial resolution and spatial extent), dispersal parameters (in two commonly used dispersal kernels: inverse power law and negative exponential models), and network parameters (link weight thresholds and network metrics). The functionality and main extensions provided by the functions in geohabnet to habitat connectivity analysis are a) Capability to easily calculate the connectivity of locations in a landscape using a single function, such as sensitivity_analysis() or msean(). b) As backbone datasets, the geohabnet package supports the use of two publicly available global datasets to calculate cropland density. The backbone datasets in the geohabnet package include crop distribution maps from Monfreda, C., N. Ramankutty, and J. A. Foley (2008) <doi:10.1029/2007gb002947> "Farming the planet: 2. Geographic distribution of crop areas, yields, physiological types, and net primary production in the year 2000, Global Biogeochem. Cycles, 22, GB1022" and International Food Policy Research Institute (2019) <doi:10.7910/DVN/PRFF8V> "Global Spatially-Disaggregated Crop Production Statistics Data for 2010 Version 2.0, Harvard Dataverse, V4". Users can also provide any other geographic dataset that represents host density. c) Because the geohabnet package allows R users to provide maps of host density (as originally in Xing et al (2021)), host landscape density (representing the geographic distribution of either crops or wild species), or habitat distribution (such as host landscape density adjusted by climate suitability) as inputs, we propose the term habitat connectivity. d) The geohabnet package allows R users to customize parameter values in the habitat connectivity analysis, facilitating context-specific (pathogen- or pest-specific) analyses. e) The geohabnet package allows users to automatically visualize maps of the habitat connectivity of locations resulting from a sensitivity analysis across all customized parameter combinations. The primary functions are msean() and sensitivity analysis(). Most functions in geohabnet provide three main outcomes: i) A map of mean habitat connectivity across parameters selected by the user, ii) a map of variance of habitat connectivity across the selected parameters, and iii) a map of the difference between the ranks of habitat connectivity and habitat density. Each function can be used to generate these maps as final outcomes. Each function can also provide intermediate outcomes, such as the adjacency matrices built to perform the analysis, which can be used in other network analysis. Refer to article at <https://garrettlab.github.io/HabitatConnectivity/articles/analysis.html> to see examples of each function and how to access each of these outcome types. To change parameter values, the file called parameters.yaml stores the parameters and their values, can be accessed using get_parameters() and set new parameter values with set_parameters()'. Users can modify up to ten parameters.

This package provides plotting functions for visualizing pedigrees and family trees. The package complements a behavior genetics package BGmisc [Garrison et al. (2024) <doi:10.21105/joss.06203>] by rendering pedigrees using the ggplot2 framework. Features include support for duplicated individuals, complex mating structures, integration with simulated pedigrees, and layout customization. Due to the impending deprecation of kinship2, version 1.0 incorporates the layout helper functions from kinship2. The pedigree alignment algorithms are adapted from kinship2 [Sinnwell et al. (2014) <doi:10.1159/000363105>]. We gratefully acknowledge the original authors: Jason Sinnwell, Terry Therneau, Daniel Schaid, and Elizabeth Atkinson for their foundational work.

Make efficient Rust implementations of graph adjustment identification distances available in R. These distances (based on ancestor, optimal, and parent adjustment) count how often the respective adjustment identification strategy leads to causal inferences that are incorrect relative to a ground-truth graph when applied to a candidate graph instead.

Spatial stratified heterogeneity (SSH), referring to the within strata are more similar than the between strata, a model with global parameters would be confounded if input data is SSH. Note that the "spatial" here can be either geospatial or the space in mathematical meaning. Geographical detector is a novel tool to investigate SSH: (1) measure and find SSH of a variable Y; (2) test the power of determinant X of a dependent variable Y according to the consistency between their spatial distributions; and (3) investigate the interaction between two explanatory variables X1 and X2 to a dependent variable Y (Wang et al 2014 <doi:10.1080/13658810802443457>, Wang, Zhang, and Fu 2016 <doi:10.1016/j.ecolind.2016.02.052>).

Detecting spatial associations via spatial stratified heterogeneity, accounting for spatial dependencies, interpretability, complex interactions, and robust stratification. In addition, it supports the spatial stratified heterogeneity family described in Lv et al. (2025)<doi:10.1111/tgis.70032>.

Neural networks are applied to create a density value function which approximates density values for a data source. The trained neural network is analyzed for different levels. For each level metric subspaces with density values above a level are determined. The obtained set of metric subspaces and the trained neural network are assembled into a data model. A prerequisite is the definition of a data source, the generation of generative data and the calculation of density values. These tasks are executed using package ganGenerativeData <https://cran.r-project.org/package=ganGenerativeData>.

Defines window or bin boundaries for the analysis of genomic data. Boundaries are based on the inflection points of a cubic smoothing spline fitted to the raw data. Along with defining boundaries, a technique to evaluate results obtained from unequally-sized windows is provided. Applications are particularly pertinent for, though not limited to, genome scans for selection based on variability between populations (e.g. using Wright's fixations index, Fst, which measures variability in subpopulations relative to the total population).

Uses ggplot2 to visualise either (a) a single DNA/RNA sequence split across multiple lines, (b) multiple DNA/RNA sequences, each occupying a whole line, or (c) base modifications such as DNA methylation called by modified bases models in Dorado or Guppy. Functions starting with visualise_<>() are the main plotting functions, and functions starting with extract_and_sort_<>() are key helper functions for reading files and reformatting data. Source code is available at <https://github.com/ejade42/ggDNAvis>, a full non-expert user guide is available at <https://ejade42.github.io/ggDNAvis/>, and an interactive web-app version of the software is available at <https://ejade42.github.io/ggDNAvis/articles/interactive_app.html>.
