FRAGMENTO

Los Sistemas de Información Geográfica (SIG) se han venido desarrollando por más de 20 años y aplicando en diversas ramas de la ciencia. En el sector de la salud pública, en particular en la Epidemiología, los SIG ofrecen múltiples oportunidades, a la vez que brindan una perspectiva espacial de las enfermedades, constituyen una poderosa herramienta para facilitar los procesos de análisis de información y de toma de decisiones en los servicios de salud.
