Public health professionals and multidisciplinary teams of new public health practices have begun to view health problems in terms of point estimates and community averages by seeking the visual and spatial perspective from GIS that fosters a more integrated approach. This book provides the technical and practical aspects of GIS-assisted investigations in public health and discusses data and data collection processes, key literature for the appropriate spatial analytical methods, and illustrations of cartographic techniques for visualizing and mapping health disparities.
