A project package to estimate a poverty map for Burundi # Poverty Mapping in Burundi : Reproducability Guidelines The goal of bdipovmap is to create a poverty map for Burundi using the Small Area Estimation approach of the Fay Herriot Model (Fay and Herriot, 1979). This ReadMe shows how to reproduce all the tables and results in the paper. You can find the script that generates this readme file as “README.Rmd” in this github working directory. ## System Set-Up 1) Please clone the repository and open up the project within RStudio. Make sure you are in the project environment. In the top right corner you will see the “bdipovmap” beside the R logo to show you are in the project’s environment. This is extremely important. Otherwise you cannot automatically load the user defined functions. 2) Please install the R `devtools` package, run `install.packages("devtools")` 3) Open `README.Rmd` and go ahead and knit the Markdown file. This file is basically running the script that produces the poverty map.
