GIS software provide tools to identify spatial clusters of various phenomena, in your case malaria zones. You could have a look at Hot Spot Analysis with ArcGIS.

Hi.

If you have your referenced data could make a visualization of data by a range of colors, where you'll show variations in color endemic areas.

Dmitry Malakhov

It could be useful to perform Ecological Niche analysis and modelling. For example, with Maxent software: https://www.cs.princeton.edu/~schapire/maxent/

Prosper Laari

GIS can help in identifying those hot spots when you map the spatial location and the incidence of each disease per location. With Spatial modelling tools you can interpolate and categorize the hot spots. Check one of my Papers in this regard on my research gate page

Andrés de la Rosa Portilla

Hy Abdul, with Gis you can identifying endemic zones, and proyect other zones with the same caracteristics, you need the fisical, Temo, rain, ... variables, and you can make a model with de susceptible areas for malaria, the you can made strategic planning, identifying priority areas for action and intervention. all multicriteria decision models

Hi Abdul,

as a general statement, software GIS are database engines. Data collection and repository are preliminary tools to make a model of the current malaria situation.

Data collection in the field requires strong financial and human efforts before to make a model of disease over the regional scale. Where consistent datasets are available, GIS represents effective tools to identify the effective vector's disease and to make forecasting evolution models of the malaria phenomena. GIS are effective tools to identify susceptible zones for disease dispersion, to model scenarios and health risk management, to plan timely&effective responses in hot spot zones, and to address health policies toward targeted people living in endemic zones.

Regards,

Roberto
