- Abstract
Data geoprocessing and spatial analysis are important tools for the study of phenomena such as the spread of diseases across the territory and over time. The aim of this study is to analyze, using Exploratory Spatial Data Analysis (ESDA), changes in the geographic distribution patterns of Covid-19 in Brazil in two distinct periods of the pandemic: (i) between April and August 2020; and (ii) between November 2020 and March 2021. For this purpose, Moran's I and LISA were applied to data referring to three epidemiological indicators: accumulated cases, new cases and lethality of the disease. The results found and the visualizations proposed present a broad perspective on the variation of Covid-19 cases in Brazilian regions and contribute to a better understanding of the epidemiological dynamics in Brazil in the first year of the Covid-19 pandemic.
