Abstract :

Malaria is one of the important public health problems; it is one of vector borne disease. In this article an attempt has been made to analyze, identify, categorize, demarcate and mapping of malaria risk taluks in the study area. Taluk wise analyses are done here from 2001 to 2010 and yearly surveillance data are used to demarcate the malaria high risk areas. Temporal analysis indicated some improvement in the disease incidence as the number of taluks with high malaria risk they were decreased after the government has adapted some Program to eradicate the Malaria in the study area. In this article GIS is used to identify and demarcate the malaria high risk areas, it facilitates the public health officer to accurate and rapid disease control.
