- 2. Why Geographical Information Systems? Advanced methods for spatial analyses Spatial statistics Exploration of spatial pattern Visualization and presentation for non-geographers (doctors, specialist) 2nd InDOG Doctoral Conference, 14th October - 15th October 2013, Olomouc
- 3. Spatial Analyses of Health Data - AOI Disease mapping Visual description of spatial variability of the disease incidence Maps of incidence risk, identification of areas with high risk Geographic correlation studies Analysis of associations among the incidence and environmental factors Analyses of spatial pattern Exploration of spatial and spatio-temporal patterns in data Disease clusters, randomness, … 2nd InDOG Doctoral Conference, 14th October - 15th October 2013, Olomouc
- 4. Health and Medical Data require specific procedures because of their confidentiality management, presentation and operations aggregated, anonymized or incomplete data sets usage of suitable analytical procedures, while the uncertainty and the inaccuracy of data characteristics need to be taken into account during the analysis and interpretation of results 2nd InDOG Doctoral Conference, 14th October - 15th October 2013, Olomouc
- 5. Data Privacy Health and medical data = private, confidential and sensitive data Keeping all available records but prevent their reidentification Usefulness of the local scale analysis X privacy protection Unlikely to explore the relations on the individual level (and not necessary) Availability, accessibility and restrictions 2nd InDOG Doctoral Conference, 14th October - 15th October 2013, Olomouc
