Lookup tables for estimating the likelihood of poverty using the Poverty Probability Index (previously called Progress out of Poverty Index) or PPI from country-specific indicators collected from cross-sectional surveys. These lookup tables are extracted from documentation of the PPI found at https://www.povertyindex.org.
You can install ppitables from CRAN with:
You can install the current development version of ppitables from GitHub with:

library(ppitables)The ppitables package contains PPI lookup tables for the 61 countries1 where PPI can currently be calculated. To be able to use the lookup tables in ppitables appropriately, you need to be aware of the naming syntax used for the tables for each country. The name for each table will always have three fixed or constant components as follows:
The name of any of the PPI tables contains:
ppi in lower case letters;XXX which is the the three letter ISO code of the country of interest (all capitals); and,YYYY which is the specific year at which the country PPI table was released.These three components are joined together without any spaces or gaps.
Some country lookup tables may have additional components to their name which are added after the year separated with an underscore. These usually signify that a lookup table released on a particular year has a subset table in which the poverty likelihoods for a given PPI score are reported based on a different poverty definition or cut-off. This additional component to the table name is usually a character value or alphanumeric and is usually country-specific. To know more about what this additional component to some PPI tables refer to, read the index table below of the PPI tables available in this package.
Following are the available PPI country tables from the ppitables package. This is updated as at 21 September 2020 using information from the PPI site.
