Convert a surveycore Design Object to a survey Package Design

Converts a survey_taylor, survey_replicate, or survey_twophase object to the corresponding survey package object: svydesign, svrepdesign, or twophase. Useful for accessing survey package estimation functions or for round-trip testing.

Usage

as_svydesign(x)

Arguments

x

A survey_taylor, survey_replicate, or survey_twophase object.

Value

A survey::svydesign, survey::svrepdesign, or survey::twophase object.

Details

Metadata (variable labels, value labels) is NOT carried over — the survey package has no metadata system.
