Abstract
The geographical information system (GIS) is an assigned framework used for collecting and analysing geographical data. This can be used to map and represent disease specific information and its spread in ranges where the infection reconnaissance is finished. Epidemiology information has become part of health data repository in health care management system. Epidemiology along with GIS helps increase the efficiency of health care services. Information visualization method can potentially be employed to assist the work of epidemiologists and other health care professional. Mapping the spread of communicable diseases in areas where the task of disease surveillance encompasses temporal elements such as changes in climate, land use and population movements. Communicable disease such as Malaria, HIV, Hepatitis, and Measles and tuberculosis are charted out on the map using colour codes. The proposed system can be used as a tool for pattern recognition with data set measuring epidemics.
