Changes in version 2.0.0                        

Indicators

  - Significantly expanded indicator support (now 182 indicators in the
    new indicatorList dataset), covering mortality, antenatal/postnatal
    and delivery care, family planning, child nutrition/vaccination,
    malaria, WASH, wealth, education, and FGM chapters.
  - Added 2-year and 5-year "preceding survey" variants for many
    indicators, plus many country/survey-specific fixes.
  - addNewIndicator() to register a user-defined processing function.

Models

  - Child mortality support (U5MR, IMR, NMR) for direct, Fay-Herriot,
    and cluster-level models, using person-month formatting via
    getBirths().
  - Variance adjustment for direct estimates with sparse data.
  - Area-level covariates via getCovariate(), unit-level covariates and
    nested models in clusterModel(), and Admin1 × urban/rural
    stratification.
  - Direct estimates and cluster models can return posterior samples.

Data download & spatial input

  - getDHSdata() gains a SurveyType argument (DHS/SPE) and handles
    surveys with multiple datasets.
  - geoBoundaries support as an alternative to GADM
    (get_geoBoundaries(), addUpper()).
  - clusterInfo() now flags invalid GPS, points outside boundaries from
    jittering, and Admin1/Admin2 mismatches (wrong.points); poly.adm2
    may be NULL.

Visualization

  - New plotting functions: interactive leaflet maps (prevMap.web()),
    static maps, exceedance-probability maps, rank plots, and interval
    plots (Admin 2 grouped by Admin 1, multi-model comparison).

Output & infrastructure

  - Standardized output columns and a unified cv definition
  - Reduced dependencies and CRAN-readiness fixes.
  - Updated vignettes/examples.

                 Changes in version 1.0.0 (2024-04-10)                  

  - More flexible model fitting syntax.
  - New indicators included.
  - New plotting functions included.
  - Two new vignettes.
