Geographic Information System (GIS) Portal
The Northeastern Partnership is developing a Geographic Information System (GIS) portal through which spatially-related public health information can be brought together in a single site. In addition, the Partnership will develop a web-based GIS application that would enable the spatial tracking of local environmental health information to increase efficiencies and provide better service throughout the region.
