Abstract

The development of the mapping from traditional methods (manual) to the
modern drawing methods (Computer) is an important step in the mapping, as the
modern digital maps play a big role in the geographical analyses in all branches.
There are many software in this field have been used such as Corel Draw which is
used for geographical health mapping, through which has been mapping the
Prevalence of cancer infections in Iraq based on the Central Statistical Organization
data taken from the Ministry of Health data which showed the number of cancer
diseases in all area of Iraq for 2005 and 2006, through drawing two maps and use the
methods of circles and survey shading in the cartographic representation. After
analyzing the two maps we observed that the highest number of infections in cancer
diseases was in Baghdad and these numbers are increasing in (Karkuk, Baghdad,
Basrah, Babil, Najaf) and these numbers are decreasing in (Arbil, Sulaymaniyah,
Anbar).
