LaMa
I wrote the R package LaMa for flexible model building and fast estimation of latent Markov models. It makes building such models much more convenient (kinda feels like stacking lego blocks) and allows for significant speed gains, so give it a try!

EgoCor
Julia Dyck and I developed the R package EgoCor as a user-friendly interface based on the R package gstat to fit exponential parametric models to empirical semi-variograms to model the spatial correlation structure of health data.
