Fits, validates and compares a number of Bayesian models for
    spatial and space time point referenced and areal unit data. Model fitting
    is done using several packages: 'rstan', 'INLA', 'spBayes', 'spTimer',
    'spTDyn', 'CARBayes' and 'CARBayesST'. Model comparison is performed using
    the DIC and WAIC,  and K-fold cross-validation where the user is free
    to select their own subset of data rows for validation. Sahu (2022)
    <doi:10.1201/9780429318443> describes the methods in detail.
