A package for fast bayesian analysis of spatial occupancy models. OccuSpytial implements several samplers for the single season site spatial occupancy model using the Intrinsic Conditional Autoregressive (ICAR) model for spatial random effects.

For usage examples refer to the project's documentation.

The package can be installed using pip.

pip install occuspytial

Alternatively, it can be installed from source using poetry

git clone https://github.com/zoj613/OccuSpytial.git

poetry install

Note that installing this way requires that Cython is installed for a successful build.
