| description | Geographic information system (GIS) and remote sensing (RS) from Earth-observing satellites offer opportunities for rapid
assessment of areas endemic for vector-borne diseases including estimates of populations at risk and guidance to intervention
strategies. This presentation deals with GIS and RS applications for the control of schistosomiasis in China and the Philippines.
It includes large-scale risk mapping including identification of suitable habitats for <i>Oncomelania hupensis</i>, the intermediate
host snail of <i>Schistosoma japonicum</i>. Predictions of infection risk are discussed with reference to ecological transformations
and the potential impact of climate change and the potential for long-term temperature increases in the North as well as the
impact on rivers, lakes and water resource developments. Potential integration of geospatial mapping and modeling in
schistosomiasis surveillance and response systems in Asia within Global Earth Observation System of Systems (GEOSS)
guidelines in the health societal benefit area is discussed. |
