Maps are invaluable tools for epidemiologists for several reasons:
They enable the identification of clusters and patterns that may indicate the source or spread of a disease. They help in the allocation of resources by pinpointing areas that require immediate attention or intervention. They aid in public health communication by providing a clear visual representation of data that can be easily understood by policymakers and the general public. They facilitate decision-making by providing a comprehensive overview of the epidemiological landscape.
