Design and Implementation of a Web-based Gis for Public Healthcare Decision Support System in Zaria Metropolis
نویسنده
چکیده
This study focuses on the development of a web-based GIS for public healthcare system. The development of this system is motivated to provide opportunities for the healthcare workers to gain access to vital information that can aid him/her in the location of viable hospitals for the patients to fully enjoy available enhanced healthcare services. Currently, three major problems still exist in the healthcare geographic applications. This relate to health mapping methods, reusability of health applications, and interoperability issues. To handle these problems, we design a Webbased GIS for Public healthcare system to support health data sharing and representation. The developed model makes it possible to locate the nearest hospitals as well as the services they rendered. This study explored the use of open source software, web server is Apache extended with support for PHP, MySQL and ARCGIS 9.2. Authentication is built into the system as security pass mark for accessing information in the data base.
