摘要:At present, as mobile devices like Personal Digital Assistant (PDA) or Handheld PC (HPC) are rapidly developed and the wireless Internet is increasingly used, interests in the mobile Geographic Information System (GIS) are gradually expanded. Nowadays, the outbreak of emergent public health events can be heard more often than before and make lots of people ill in a short time. How to deal with the events much more rapidly and efficiently are the main factors needed to be considered. With the development of mobile devices and wireless network, according to the characteristics of emergent public health event, the paper has designed and implemented a mobile spatial information system based on PDA for public health emergency. The platform integrates the technologies of GIS, Global Positioning System (GPS), Global System for Mobile Communication (GSM) and General Packer Radio Service (GPRS). A significant operation on the handling of emergency incidents is the danger identification and reasonable action taken in low response time. The system can instruct health care practitioners to make epidemiology investigation. At the same time, it can implement the functions such as data computation, statistic analysis, spatial analysis based on data collection. Thus, when public health emergencies break out, it can help to configure social resources more reasonably and support decision making much more scientifically
