Advances in computer processing, Geographic Information System (GIS), Remote
Sensing (RS) and Global Positioning System (GPS) technologies now make it easier
to integrate ecological environmental, and remotely sensed data for the purpose
of developing predictive models that can be used in public health disease
surveillance and control activities. These new capabilities will bring
significant improvements in spectral, spatial, and temporal resolution, thereby
making it possible to address public health issues previously thought to be
beyond the capabilities of remote sensing. |
