Geospatial, Epidemiology and Outcomes Shared Resource (GEOSR)

Leveraging the power of data, the Geospatial, Epidemiology and Outcomes Shared Resource catalyzes innovative translational and population-based cancer research, with an emphasis on cancer disparities.

Scheduling, Location, and Hours of Operation

Virtual | Monday–Friday from 8 a.m.-5 p.m.
For support, please email geo@mcw.edu.

Services and Technologies

GEO provides access to integrated translational, clinical and population data; cancer epidemiology and database expertise; information on the cancer burden in the catchment area, and geospatial mapping and analysis.

As part of its outcomes data services, GEO houses the Integrated Cancer Data Resource (ICDR). This essential infrastructure facilitates centralized access to translational, clinical, and population-based Catchment Area data.

Sample Illustration: Wisconsin Lung Cancer Incidence, 2010-2015

Using data from the , members of the GEOSR team discovered lung cancer incidence rate is indirectly age-sex standardized and smoothed using adaptive spatial filtering.

Red areas on the map indicate higher rates than expected and blue areas indicate lower rates than expected, given the regional rate. Areas without color exhibit rates close to the regional rate.

The 鈥淧ercent Minority鈥 layer displays the percent of people who identify as a minority in each Census Tract. This is layer is only visible at a higher Zoom level. Different layers can be selected and overlapped to observe patterns.

Data was obtained from the American Cancer Society (ACS) 2012-2016 estimates and  maintained by the Environmental Protection Agency.
