Geospatial and Spatio-Temporal Models

COVID-19 Experience in the Philippines

Abstract

One of the main functions of the FASSSTER platform is to provide Spatio-Temporal approach in understanding disease spread. In fact, the name of the platform when spelled out explicitly indicates Spatio-Temporal analysis. Specifically, the original version of FASSSTER made use of Spatio-Temporal Epidemiological Modeler (STEM) to visualize the spread of dengue, measles, and typhoid that is derived from the SEIR projections. Given the limitations in using STEM for spatial and spatio-temporal analysis for COVID-19 cases in the Philippines, more appropriate models were developed to accommodate the need for better visualization as well as a better prediction on the spread of the disease.
