MLID: a package for calculating a multilevel index of dissimilarity

Description

Tools for fitting a multilevel index of dissimilarity to geographically hierarchical data. The results measure the two principal dimensions of segregation, unevenness and clustering. The amount of segregation, scale effects and the impact of particular places on the overall index can be assessed. The package development was funded partly under the ESRC's Urban Big Data Centre http://ubdc.ac.uk/, grant ES/L011921/1.
