Abstract

In recent epidemical researches based on GIS, a great deal of studies focus on the data analysis and result deduction using spatial-temporal analysis, scientific visualization, etc. However, there are rare researches on information visualization of various epidemical diseases. This paper studied information visualization of epidemical disease attributes, distribution, and statistics based on GIS, designed a multi-scale and population-based epidemical spreading model by considering the influence of real geographical and demographic information, and implemented its information visualization. The epidemical influence of population immigration is also considered. This model is based on the traditional SEIRS model, and could be applied to the real epidemical spreading simulation on the basis of real epidemical, geographical, social, and demographic data.
