GEOMED 2026

Pamplona (Spain), 17 – 19 June 2026

CONFERENCE
INFORMATION

Bi-annual international meeting on spatial epidemiology

The conference focuses both on the developments in methodology and the applications of methods for spatial and spatio-temporal data in public health. The growth in availability of spatially references data of both infectious and non-infectious diseases is increasing the demand for spatial and spatio-temporal analyses. Both GIS technology and spatial statistics are fundamental in the analysis of this data, and the field’s methods are quickly expanding.
