Spatial Data: make the most of your opportunities | Chris Grundy | TEDxLSHTM
What if we could use existing technologies to improve our ability to respond to emergencies and outbreaks? Geographical Information Specialist, Chris Grundy explains how you can use simple mobile technologies to collect a constant supply of data that will allow us to map disease outbreaks or populations, improve response times and prevent the spread of disease.
Chris Grundy is a Lecturer in Geographical Information Systems (GIS) as London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine. His background is Civil engineering and then a MSc in GIS. He started at LSHTM in 1993, supplying GIS support to projects on environmental links to health in the UK. Within a few years he was working across the whole institution, running training courses, and building research capacity. He has worked in most areas of health research in both low and high income countries. His main area of interest is data; how it can be collected and managed more efficiently, and how the requirements for clean data in GIS can be used to improved other aspects of data collection.
This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at http://ted.com/tedx
