A software containing utility functions for the COVID-19 forecast hub. Features of the software package include: reading forecast data, reading observed "truth" data, plotting forecasts, scoring forecasts, downloading and pre-processing "truth" data, calculating Forecast Similarities. This is a software package that relies on a small number of packages, including many from the tidyverse and, importantly, the zoltr package that is used to access the Zoltar API for downloading forecasts. The covidHubUtils package currently is only available on GitHub and may be installed using the devtools package. To use, install zoltr from GitHub, as this development version often has important features not yet on the CRAN version.
