  <dc:title>Spatial Distribution Dynamics</dc:title>
  <dc:title>R package sddr version 0.1.1</dc:title>
  <dc:description>A tidy toolkit for distribution dynamics: analysing how a
    cross-sectional distribution of values evolves over time and where it
    settles in the long run. Provides discrete-time, spatial, rank and local
    indicator of spatial association ('LISA') Markov transition estimation,
    ergodic analysis (steady-state, mean first passage and sojourn times),
    rank-mobility measures (Kendall's tau and the Theta statistic) and Markov
    mobility indices. Methods use long-format 'id'/'time'/'value' data rather
    than transition matrices and build on the distribution-dynamics literature
    (Quah (1993); Rey (2001)
    &lt;doi:10.1111/j.1538-4632.2001.tb00444.x&gt;). Results are validated for
    numerical parity against the reference 'giddy' library.</dc:description>
