The Geocode Correction in the Database as a Base for Spatial Analysis
Original language description
This article describes data correction in epidemiological database EPIDAT. The correction is aimed to correct all information about address of patients, place of infection and the get ill place of patients. Address and a location were compared against the valid Czech Territorial Identification Address Register UIR-ADR. Some records have been automatically repaired by SQL queries. There are also some irreparable records in EPIDAT. Trial database were taken for Olomouc Region for 10 selected diagnoses forperiod 2004-2008. Number of records was 24 thousand in trial database. The suggested universal steps of geocode repairing can be repeated to records about other 43 diagnoses or to newly recorded data from 2009 up to the present time. Moreover, the stepsof semiautomatic correction can be applied to other 13 separate EPIDAT databases from each Regional Hygiene Station in the Czech Republic. The attribute correction is crucial for further spatial analysis of epidemiological data from the
