title: 'WES: Tools for Analyzing Wastewater and Environmental Sampling Data'
version: 1.0.0

abstract: Provides reproducible functions for collating and analyzing data from environmental
  sampling studies. Environmental Sampling (ES) of infectious diseases involves collecting
  samples from various sources (such as sewage, water, air, soil, or surfaces) to
  monitor the presence of pathogens in the environment. Analysis of ES data often
  requires the calculation of Real-Time Quantitative PCR (qPCR) variables, normalizing
  ES observations, and analyzing sampling site characteristics. To help reduce the
  complexity of these analyses we have implemented tools that assist with establishing
  standardized ES data formats, absolute and relative quantification of qPCR data,
  estimation of qPCR amplification efficiency, and collating open-source spatial data
  for sampling sites.
