  <dc:title>Estimate individual level risk using individual case data and
spatially aggregated control data</dc:title>
  <dc:description>This package uses weighted estimating equations to
estimate regression parameters in the intensity function of an
inhomogeneous spatial Poisson process, when information on
risk-factors is available at the individual level for cases,
but only at a spatially aggregated level for the population at
risk. Data-driven methods are used to select the weights used
in the estimating equations. A formal test is available to
detect non-Poisson behaviour in the underlying point process.</dc:description>
