Georeferenced data in epidemiologic research.
This paper reviews some conceptual and practical issues regarding the application of georeferenced data in epidemiologic research. Starting with the disease mapping tradition of geographical medicine, topics such as types of georeferenced data, implications for data analysis, spatial autocorrelation and main analytical approaches are heuristically discussed, relying on examples from the epidemi...
متن کاملOverview of the epidemiologic research: Editorial Guidelines
Epidemiology can be considered as a very old science. For example, John Graunt, a statistician, published Natural and Political Observations. In the Bills of Mortality in 1662, he analyzed the mortality rolls in London before the Great Plague, presented one of the first life tables, and reported time trends for many diseases.

متن کاملSpatial Presentation and Aggregation of Georeferenced Data
In this paper, we will introduce a method of spatial presentation of georeferenced data in a three-dimensional space. Photographs, Quicktime VR’s, videos, and computer graphic renderings provide realistic presentations rich in visual information. We believe, however, there is an issue of visualizing georeferenced data such as attribute data for spatial objects as well as showing the objects the...
متن کاملDatascape: A mobile exploration of georeferenced data
We describe a location-aware system for the visual and auditory representation of georeferenced datasets. The portable system is designed to be deployed in vehicles but also can be used for stationary simulations. The system is composed of four major elements: a geodatabase, a data visualization engine, a sonification engine, and a periscope-like display/sensing/interface device. As users trave...
متن کاملEpidemiologic methods in cancer research.
As knowledge of the etiology of a disease increases, the disciplines seeming to have the greatest potential for producing further advances change. In the development of knowledge of the infectious diseases, centuries of clinical and pathologic study devoted to definition preceded a phase of productive epi-demiologic investigation that itself has now given way to an era of laboratory predominanc...
