Guidelines for creating framework data for GIS analysis in low‐ and middle‐income countries
Canadian Geographies / Géographies canadiennes, Volume 60, Issue 3, Page 320-332, Fall / automne 2016., 2016 Health sciences research is increasingly incorporating geographic methods and spatial data.

These geographies of information about places matter because they shape how we are able to find and understand different ...
