Synopsis :

With recent disease outbreaks and concerns about bioterrorism, interest in the application of GIS to individual level data has grown. Geocoding Health Data discusses recent technical and administrative developments in geographic information science that will affect the future practice of geocoding. This book examines how geocoded residential addresses can be used to examine the spatial patterns of cancer incidence, staging, survival, and mortality. It also explores how privacy and confidentiality issues can be addressed by focusing on disclosure limitation methods while simultaneously enabling the use of more accurate spatial data on disease distributions.
