[R-sig-Geo] SaTScan: (geo)graphical visualization in R?

[Agustin Lobo]

Virgilio,

DCLuster is certainly a good alternative tool.
Perhaps another solution could be just reading SaTScan output
into R and making objects like those
in DCLuster, then using the same graphical tools. We'll see.

Thanks!

Agus
