GEOSTAT 2010 Summer School
27 June - 4 July 2010; University of Plasencia, Spain
This is the first call for participation in the GEOSTAT 2010 Summer
School. GEOSTAT focuses on important aspects of statistical analysis of
spatial and spatio-temporal data using open source / free GIS tools: R,
I've recently been working on a web site for tropical disease mapping
in Africa. As a demo, I'm not using real data, but I have been using
real countries. I don't really want to use real countries just in case
there's any misunderstanding that this is simulated case numbers.
So I've thought

regions!
That's another interesting problem - creating fake names for regions.
