Spatial parasite ecology and epidemiology: a review of methods and applications. [PDF]
The distributions of parasitic diseases are determined by complex factors, including many that are distributed in space. A variety of statistical methods are now readily accessible to researchers providing opportunities for describing and ultimately ...

Spatial measurement errors in the field of spatial epidemiology [PDF]
Spatial epidemiology has been aided by advances in geographic information systems, remote sensing, global positioning systems and the development of new statistical methodologies specifically designed for such data. Given the growing popularity of these studies, we sought to review and analyze the types of spatial measurement errors commonly ...

Remote sensing, geographical information system and spatial analysis for schistosomiasis epidemiology and ecology in Africa. [PDF]
Beginning in 1970, the potential of remote sensing (RS) techniques, coupled with geographical information systems (GIS), to improve our understanding of the epidemiology and control of schistosomiasis in Africa, has steadily grown. In our current review,

Spatial epidemiology of networked metapopulation: An overview [PDF]
An emerging disease is one infectious epidemic caused by a newly transmissible pathogen, which has either appeared for the first time or already existed in human populations, having the capacity to increase rapidly in incidence as well as geographic range.
