memsurveillance.animated {mem}R Documentation

Creates the animated graph of the surveillance of the current season

Description

Function memsurveillance.animated creates an animated surveillance graph for the current season.

Usage

memsurveillance.animated(
  i.current,
  i.epidemic.thresholds = NA,
  i.intensity.thresholds = NA,
  i.output = ".",
  i.animated.graph.file = T,
  i.animated.graph.file.name = "animated",
  i.fps = 2,
  i.loop = 0,
  i.remove = T,
  ...
)

Arguments

i.current

Current season weekly rates.

i.epidemic.thresholds

Pre and post epidemic threholds.

i.intensity.thresholds

Intensity thresholds.

i.output

Directory where graph is saved.

i.animated.graph.file

If a animated gif should be produced, or just the intermediate graphics

i.animated.graph.file.name

Name of the animated graph.

i.fps

Number of frames per second of the animated gif.

i.loop

Number of loops for the animated dif, 0 for Infinite.

i.remove

Remove partial graphs.

...

Additional parameters parsed to memsurveillance.

Details

Input data must be the current season and an object of class mem. The output graph contains the weekly rates series along with the epidemic and intensity threshols located at the exact situation where the epidemic started. If there is no epidemic yet, only the epidemic threshold is placed.

See memsurveillance for more details

Value

memsurveillance.animated writes a gif graph of the surveillance of this season.
