A free software for spatial, temporal, and space-time scan statistics
SaTScan is a software tool that employs scan statistics for the spatial and temporal analysis of clusters of events.[1][2][3][4] The software is trademarked by Martin Kulldorff, and was designed originally for public health and epidemiology to identify clusters of cases in both space (geographical location) and time and to perform statistical analysis to determine if these clusters are significantly different from what would be expected by chance[1][5][6] The software provides a user-friendly interface and a range of statistical methods, making it accessible to researchers and practitioners.[1][7] While not a full Geographic Information System, the outputs from SaTScan can be integrated with software such as ArcGIS or QGIS to visualize and analyze spatial data, and to map the distribution of various phenomena.
