本文提供了在2007年CDC和ATSDR第11届两年一度的统计方法研讨会上的特邀演讲的摘要,在该会议上,一所大学的非营利合作针对消除种族差异在围产期健康与使用地理信息系统(GIS)。该方案将在四个时间阶段进行描述:早期的预编程(1999-2001年),其中界定了健康负担,导致健康v开始接近(2001-2005年),其中包括空间分析、有效传播地理信息系统成果的方法、创建巴吞鲁日健康开端数据库,和走向一个概念性的目标,建立一个整体的社区GIS健康模型都进行了描述。卡特里娜年(2005年9月至2006年初)描绘了灾难的影响,以及随着双方的资源被用于应对和恢复,合作如何发生变化。论文的最后一部分,卡特里娜飓风后的转向(2006年初和正在进行中)描述了路易斯安那州的健康状况,包括巴吞鲁日以及新奥尔良,如何在风暴后恶化。一个论点是,在合作的卡特里娜飓风前几年的关系和GIS结构开发,即使拉伸,提供了灵活性,分析和科普卡特里娜飓风型冲击的系统。版权所有(C)2008约翰威利父子有限公司
This paper provides a summary of the invited talk at the 2007 CDC & ATSDR 11th Biennial Symposium on Statistical Methods conference in which a university-non-profit collaboration targeted the elimination of racial disparities in perinatal health with the use of a Geographic Information System (GIS). This program will be described in four temporal stages: the pre-program early years (1999-2001) where the health burden is defined, leading to the Health v Start nears (2001-2005), in which spatial analyses, methods to effectively disseminate GIS results, the creation of the Baton Rouge Healthy Start database, and a move toward a conceptual goal of creating a holistic neighborhood GIS-health model are all described. The Katrina Years (September 2005-early 2006) portrays the impact of the disaster and how the collaboration changed as resources from both were directed toward both response and recovery. The final section of the paper, the Post-Katrina veers (early 2006 and ongoing) describes how the health landscape of Louisiana, including Baton Rouge as well as New Orleans, has worsened after the storms. An argument is made that the relationships and GIS structure developed during the collaboration's pre-Katrina years, even though stretched, provide the flexibility to analyze and cope with a Katrina-type shock to the system.
