Leveraging geographic information system for dengue surveillance: a scoping review.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Vector-borne diseases caused by Aedes mosquitoes remain a major public health concern across tropical and subtropical regions. Geographic Information Systems (GIS) have become integral in surveillance by enabling spatial analysis, risk mapping, and predictive modelling. This scoping review explores how GIS has been applied in surveillance studies and identifies its potential applications, key variables, modelling approaches, and challenges.

Methods

This scoping review was conducted following PRISMA-ScR guidelines and was structured using a search strategy to identify relevant peer-reviewed articles published between 2015 and 2024 across databases like PubMed, Scopus, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar. A total of 64 studies were selected and charted based on geogra
