"This timely and groundbreaking book demonstrates how to develop models of vector borne disease risks based on different environmental and socioeconomic variables and to assess the association between these variables and their vectors in a Geographic Information System (GIS) environment. It addresses new spatial approaches and techniques based on location and environment and introduces methods to identify, determine, and analyze the trend, movement, and distribution of diseases and the vectors that transmit disease"--
