An interface for performing climate matching using the Euclidean "Climatch" algorithm. Functions provide a vector of climatch scores (0-10) for each location (i.e., grid cell) within the recipient region, the percent of climatch scores >= a threshold value, and mean climatch score. Tools for parallelization and visualizations are also provided. Note that the floor function that rounds the climatch score down to the nearest integer has been removed in this implementation and the “Climatch” algorithm, also referred to as the “Climate” algorithm, is described in: Crombie, J., Brown, L., Lizzio, J., & Hood, G. (2008). “Climatch user manual”. The method for the percent score is described in: Howeth, J.G., Gantz, C.A., Angermeier, P.L., Frimpong, E.A., Hoff, M.H., Keller, R.P., Mandrak, N.E., Marchetti, M.P., Olden, J.D., Romagosa, C.M., and Lodge, D.M.

Access data related to the European union from 'GISCO'
  <https://ec.europa.eu/eurostat/web/gisco>, the Geographic Information
  System of the European Commission, via its rest API at
  <https://gisco-services.ec.europa.eu>.
  This package tries to make it easier to get these data into R.

The remit of the European Clinical Trials Data Base (EudraCT <https://eudract.ema.europa.eu/> ), or ClinicalTrials.gov <https://clinicaltrials.gov/>, is to provide open access to summaries of all registered clinical trial results; thus aiming to prevent non-reporting of negative results and provide open-access to results to inform future research. The amount of information required and the format of the results, however, imposes a large extra workload at the end of studies on clinical trial units. In particular, the adverse-event-reporting component requires entering: each unique combination of treatment group and safety event; for every such event above, a further 4 pieces of information (body system, number of occurrences, number of subjects, number exposed) for non-serious events, plus an extra three pieces of data for serious adverse events (numbers of causally related events, deaths, causally related deaths). This package prepares the required statistics needed by EudraCT and formats them into the precise requirements to directly upload an XML file into the web portal, with no further data entry by hand.
