Hi
I am working with climate change and health. I am facing the following issue
in my work and will appreciate any kind of help and suggestions.
I am trying to link the weather observations to hospital admissions. The
issue is: if we have more than one weather station in a particular region
what is the best standard way to cover the weather observation for the
people of that region.
Suppose I have 4 weather stations for the county ESSEX, which are currently
providing the weather observations.
Weather station Src_id (unique id for the weather station) : 496, 481, 487,
488
And their respected Weather station outward postcode: SS1, IG10, CM1, CO9.
Total ESSEX outward postcode: CB1, CB10, CB11, CB9, CM0, CM1, CM11, CM12,
CM13, CM14, CM15, CM16, CM17, CM19, CM2, CM20, CM22, CM23, CM24, CM3, CM4,
CM5, CM6, CM7, CM8, CM9, CO1, CO10, CO11, CO12, CO13, CO14, CO15, CO16, CO2,
CO3, CO4, CO5, CO6, CO7, CO8, CO9, E4, EN9, IG10, IG7, IG9, RM14, RM15,
RM16, RM17, RM18, RM19, RM20, RM4, SG8, SS0, SS1, SS11, SS12, SS13, SS14,
SS15, SS16, SS17, SS3, SS4, SS5, SS6, SS7, SS8, SS9.
Question: If I want to cover all the outward postcode area by these weather
stations observations,
1)Is there any standard mathematical algorithm or procedure to do it? Please
provide me some name and/or links (article) for them.
2)Should I include the other outward postcode area by measuring the distance
between the station postcode and other postcode? Please if possible provide
some link as well.
3)Please don’t hesitate to provide me any advices that you think will be
helpful for me as I am very much new in this arena.
Thanks and Regards
Saiful
