netmigration_projection function

netmigration_projection

Forecasting net migration.

netmigration_projection(
  mortality_rates_path,
  TFR_path,
  total_population_path,
  WRA_path,
  omega_age,
  horizon,
  first_year_projection
)

Arguments

• mortality_rates_path: character. Path to Mortality rates in a .txt file.
• TFR_path: character. Path to Fertility rates in a .txt file.
• total_population_path: character. Path to Populations in a .txt file.
• WRA_path: character. Path to Women of Reproductive Age in a .txt file.
• omega_age: numeric. Maximum age.
• horizon: numeric. The forecast horizon.
• first_year_projection: numeric. Year for the base population.

Returns

netmigration_projection returns an object of class fmforecast with the forecast netmigration models and the components of demography::forecast.fdmpr().
