This book is specifically designed to serve the community of postgraduates and researchers in the fields of epidemiology, health GIS, medical geography, and health management. It starts with the basic concepts and role of remote sensing, GIS in Kala-azar diseases. The book gives an exhaustive coverage of Satellite data, GPS, GIS, spatial and attribute data modeling, and geospatial analysis of Kala-azar diseases. It also presents the modern trends of remote sensing and GIS in health risk assessment with an illustrated discussion on its numerous applications. .
Introduction -- Spatial database for public health -- Spatio-temporal assessment of health events -- Analyzing spatial clustering of health events -- Exploring ecology and associated disease pattern -- Spatial technology in health-care planning and policy.
