Early Warning and Automated Response System

edit

Early Warning and Automated Response System (EWARS) is a system to support spatial decision support. Spatial pattern of risk and spatial allocation of resources according to risk is a primary objective

Mathematical Analysis and Processing of spatial Pattern and Processes

edit

For spatial decision support the following basics are recommended for your learning steps:

  • Moving Average is used to smooth spatial data. For this learning objective it is necessary to examine the the moving average in discrete and continuous setting and on image processing as a first step.
  • (Health Maps and Animation) Analyse how to create a webbased heatmap with Leaflet[2] of OpenLayers for visualize spatial pattern of high risk areas for communicable diseases.
