Geospatial Science and Technology: Focus Areas
Health, Economic, and Social Policy Research
We apply geospatial tools, techniques and data to a wide range of research in support of health, economic, and social policy. Collaborating closely with experts in public health, health economics, health care quality, and other fields, we apply geospatial data integration and analysis to discover geographic relationships among data that would be difficult or impossible to find otherwise.
We convert and integrate survey, health, and economic data into geospatial formats, and we analyze and map social policy data. We integrate research data with standardized census demographics and commercial databases to help researchers and clients understand and develop solutions to difficult health, economic, and social policy issues.
