SPATIAL ANALYSIS OF MORTALITY IN BOSNIA AND HERZEGOVINA: A PRELIMINARY ANALYSIS
In this study, using the methods of spatial autocorrelation in geographic information systems (GIS), an analysis of the spatial distribution of mortality rates in Bosnia and Herzegovina was performed in order to identify high-risk areas with increased mortality and depopulation.

| description | In this study, using the methods of spatial autocorrelation in geographic information systems (GIS), an
analysis of the spatial distribution of mortality rates in Bosnia and Herzegovina was performed in order
to identify high-risk areas with increased mortality and depopulation. Spatial analysis is based on the
calculation of global (Global Moran’s I and Getis-Ord General G) and local (Anselin Local Moran’s I
and Getis-Ord Gi*) statistical indices of spatial autocorrelation. The values of global statistical indices
confirmed a clustering of high mortality values, while local statistical indices confirmed high mortality rates
in the municipalities of northwestern and eastern Bosnia and Herzegovina. Conducted research provides an
insight into spatial patterns of demographic processes, while results obtained by this research are significant
for demographic development and future spatial demographic research in Bosnia and Herzegovina. |
