Primes

• Spatial Indexing
  • GIS transfers to epidemiology: spatial indexes built for parcels and roads are now used for outbreak clustering and contact tracing, the geometric operations being identical.

    This sourceReviews how GIS and spatial-indexing/analysis methods built for geographic features are applied to disease-cluster detection, outbreak investigation, and contact tracing — the geometric operations identical to the GIS originals.
