Abstract

Dengue fever remains a significant public health issue in many countries. Its high prevalence highlights the need for effective tools like Geographic Information Systems (GIS) to help predict and manage the spread of the disease. This study aims to examine and summarize the role of GIS in mapping and communicating dengue transmission patterns. A bibliometric approach was used to collect relevant literature from databases such as Google Scholar, Scopus, and PubMed. Out of 440 identified articles, only 11 met the inclusion criteria. Data extracted included publication years (2013–2023), journal titles, study designs, populations, interventions, outcomes, and reported benefits of GIS in dengue-related research. Qualitative analysis was conducted by organizing and presenting key findings. The results show that GIS is valuable in identifying current outbreak areas, detecting high-risk zones through spatial clustering, improving the accuracy of case predictions, and supporting ongoing surveillance efforts. Additionally, GIS contributes to more informed decision-making in dengue prevention and control programs. Overall, GIS plays an essential role in understanding disease dynamics, enhancing early warning systems, and guiding public health responses to dengue outbreaks.
