Mapping the Epidemic: A Systemic Geography of COVID-19 in Italy
provides a theoretical-methodological framework based on space-time
analysis to map and interpret the set of factors that could have
contributed to the spread of COVID-19, as well as a reflexive
cartographic mapping visualizing the virus's dynamics. After an
introduction that constitutes the theoretical anchor of the work
carried out both with respect to territorial analysis and the use
of reflexive cartography, the book discusses the role played by
reflexive cartography in research on the COVID-19 pandemic
conducted by an Italian university working group dealing with
reticularity and the territorial fragilities that have influenced
the spread. The data, subjected to analysis, are translated into
reflexive cartography as a tool for restitution and investigation
of the territorial dynamics. Each chapter consists of detailed
information in which the European context of data analysis is
illustrated, to then investigate the Italian territory and focus on
the case of Lombardy and, in particular, of Bergamo as the
epicenter. The book addresses the theoretical and methodological
approaches of mapping the epidemic in Italy and the importance of
cartography in the outbreak response, as well as including data
accounting for contributing factors such as atmospheric pollution
and infection rate, population distribution and major mobility
corridors, and measures adopted to contain the outbreak, by
implementing mapping at the regional Lombard, national, and
European levels. Mapping the Epidemic: A Systemic Geography of
COVID-19 in Italy uses an interdisciplinary approach that
highlights the key role of geography and cartography in providing
usable data and conclusions on the virus outbreak and will be
valuable for researchers and professionals in the fields of
geography, GIS, and spatial mapping, as well as statisticians
working on mapping outbreaks and epidemiological scientists needing
mapping data on the virus.
