ABSTRACT

A goal of the health system is the prevention of diseases, which is why the study of the relationship of diseases with space is of special importance. There is evidence of the use of Geographic Information Systems in studies on the spatial distribution of health problems. Despite this, the works reported in the consulted literature do not exploit the spatial component of the data, which limits its comprehensiveness. On the other hand, there is dispersion in the methodologies, tools and techniques to approach studies of this type. This research presents a method of stratification of territories based on Geographic Information Systems and geometric similarity measures, defined from the criteria: distance, size and connectivity.
The proposal allows for stratified studies according to the first law of geography and guarantees the obtaining of more compact strata. The proposed method has five stages: Selection of indicators and territories, Pre-processing of indicators, Grouping, Post-processing and Visualization, supported by a computer solution based on free software. As part of the validation, the method is applied in a case study and the analysis of validation indices is carried out that guarantee the effectiveness and competitiveness of the proposal.
