Spatial versions of Regression Discontinuity Designs (RDDs) are becoming increasingly popular as tools for causal inference. However, conducting state-of-the-art analyses often involves tedious and time-consuming steps. This package offers comprehensive functionalities for executing all required spatial and econometric tasks in a streamlined manner. Moreover, it equips researchers with tools for performing essential placebo and balancing checks comprehensively. The fact that researchers do not have to rely on APIs of external GIS software ensures replicability and raises the standard for spatial RDDs.

This package implements the distance-adjusted propensity score with interference (iDAPS) and recoverU+ methods for estimating the average treatment effect on the treated (ATT) from spatial observational data in the presence of both spatial confounding and spatial interference. iDAPS matches units on a data-driven composite of propensity-score distance, spatial proximity and neighbourhood-exposure distance. recoverU+ is a doubly robust estimator that augments the propensity-score and control-outcome models with a partially recovered spatial confounder and a neighbourhood-exposure term. The package also provides the naive propensity score, DAPS and recoverU comparators, and a simulator for the spatial confounding/interference data-generating process.

Infrastructure and functions that can be used for integrating Stan (Carpenter et al.

This package provides a framework for undertaking space and time varying coefficient models (varying parameter models) using a Generalized Additive Model (GAM) with smooths approach. The framework suggests the need to investigate for the presence and nature of any space-time dependencies in the data. It proposes a workflow that creates and refines an initial space-time GAM and includes tools to create and evaluate multiple model forms. The workflow sequence is to: i) Prepare the data by lengthening it to have a single location and time variables for each observation. ii) Create all possible space and/or time models in which each predictor is specified in different ways in smooths. iii) Evaluate each model via their AIC value and pick the best one. iv) Create the final model. v) Calculate the varying coefficient estimates to quantify how the relationships between the target and predictor variables vary over space, time or space-time. vi) Create maps, time series plots etc. The number of knots used in each smooth can be specified directly or iteratively increased. This is illustrated with a climate point dataset of the dry rain forest in South America. This builds on work in Comber et al (2024) <doi:10.1080/13658816.2023.2270285> and Comber et al (2026) <doi:10.1080/13658816.2026.2671964>.
