HEIMTSA

HEIMTSA (Health and Environment Integrated Methodology and Toolbox for Scenario Assessment) has brought together an international team of scientists in the areas of epidemiology, environmental science and biosciences, to collaborate on developing and applying new, integrated approaches to the assessment of environmental health risks and consequences, in support of European policy in transport, energy, agriculture, industry, household and waste treatment and disposal.

The project has been successfully finished by January 31, 2011. For further information, please visit the 'Results' section of our web sites or contact Fintan Hurley or Susan Scarisbrick. Thank you!

Workshop on GIS for Integrated Assessment

Categories: | Author: Sonja Grossberndt | Posted: 05/05/2009 | Views: 1117

A short course on GIS for integrated assessment will be held from 29 June - 03 July 2009 at Imperial College, London. This workshop aims on communicating in which ways spatial methods and GIS can be used for exposure assessment and risk analysis in order to support public health policy.

This course is aimed at active researchers involved in health risk analysis.

The overall aim of this course is to describe and demonstrate ways in which spatial methods and geographical information 
systms (GIS) can be used for exposure assessment and risk analysis and thereby support public health policy.Following a brief 
introduction to the basic principles and functionality of GIS, the course will explore various spatial interpolation, modelling 
and data linkage techniques that can be used for exposure analysis and health risk assessment.

Throughout, emphasis will be placed on the potential and the limitations of GIS, in order to help potential users make 
sensible choices about the most appropriate analytical methods for different application, and in different circumstances.

The course will comprise a series of hands‐on practicals (predominantly within ESRI ArcGIS environment), supported by 
lectures and group discussion.Participants will be provided with PC access, software and data required for the duration of the course.

The information flyer is available HERE.
