Use of Geographic Information System (GIS) In Disease Surveillance
ثبت نشده
چکیده
In any disease surveillance system, lot of data for multiple diseases is collected and analysed to prevent occurrence of an outbreak. These analysis are mainly done through table and graphs. Although, tabular and graphical representation represents all of the requested data but, it remains very difficult to fully understand the patterns and trends buried in them or make quick and effective comparisons between the figures. Analysing this information clubbed with other factors like (population density, forests, water bodies, drinking water availability, elevation etc.) makes the situation even more complex.
