DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): SaTScan is a free statistical disease surveillance software package implementing the spatial, temporal and spatio-temporal scan statistics. It is used by many scientists and public health officials across the United States and around the world for geographical disease cluster detection and evaluation, and for the early detection of disease outbreaks. With the software, it is possible to determine whether disease cases are randomly distributed over space and/or time, or whether there are statistically significant spatial, temporal and/or spatio-temporal clusters with more (or fewer) cases than expected. Critically, it adjusts for the multiple testing inherent in the many possible cluster locations and sizes evaluated, as well as for covariates. As the number of users increase, there is an increasing number of requests for new SaTScan features and functionalities, including integration with geographical information systems and statistical software packages, graphical output functionalities, power evaluation tools, more general analysis options, and easy to use training material. In this project, we propose to further develop and maintain the SaTScan software to fulfill many of these needs.

描述（由申请人提供）：SATSCAN是实施空间，时间和时空扫描统计的免费统计疾病监视软件包。它被美国和世界各地的许多科学家和公共卫生官员使用，用于地理疾病群集检测和评估，以及疾病暴发的早期发现。使用该软件，可以确定疾病病例是否是在空间和/或时间上随机分布的，或者是否存在统计学上显着的空间，时间和/或时空簇，其病例比预期更多（或更少）。至关重要的是，它针对评估的许多可能的群集位置和大小以及协变量的多个测试调整。随着用户数量的增加，对新的SATSCAN功能和功能的请求数量越来越多，包括与地理信息系统和统计软件包的集成，图形输出功能，功率评估工具，更多的一般分析选项以及易于使用的培训材料。在这个项目中，我们建议进一步开发和维护SATSCAN软件以满足许多需求。
