| Description: | The Global Monitoring and Human Health (GMHH) program was initiated in 1985 by NASA's Life Sciences Division to explore the practical application of remote sensing and geographic information systems (RS/GIS) technologies for malaria surveillance. The goal of the program, phased over nine years, has been to determine if remote sensing and field data, integrated in a GIS, can be used to predict the spatial and temporal variability in malaria vector population dynamics for the purpose of assessing malaria transmission risk. |
