National Conference on Environmental Problem-Solving with Geographic Information Systems

The growing availability of improved hardware and software for geographic information systems (GIS) has outstripped most users’ ability to identify and represent uncertainty in the available data. In practice, the proliferation and compounding of errors and uncertainty increase as information becomes more easily handled and combined from different sources. Various stages of GIS database develop...

p105: geographic information systems on accident risk assessment and management

the paper discusses the use of modern information technologies, and in particular geographic information systems (gis), in the management and control of major accident risk. for this purpose, the regulatory framework of the recent “seveso ii” directive is briefly described. the referencing in space of the phenomena may be defined in terms of a geometrically exact or a relative location. the for...

Use of a case-control study and geographic information systems to determine environmental and demographic risk factors for canine leptospirosis.

Leptospirosis is increasingly diagnosed as a re-emerging canine disease in the USA. Our objectives were to describe potential risk factors for canine leptospirosis infections in northern California, through the use of a case-control study, and to perform a spatial analysis to investigate which aspects of the landscape and land use patterns are important in the transmission of leptospirosis. For...
