GIRPharma: a geographic information retrieval approach to locate pharmacies on duty

Published:21 June 2010Publication History

ABSTRACT

This paper describes an approximation based on geographic information retrieval with the purpose to give some solutions to the problem of searching pharmacies on duty in the Spanish territory. It is a novel investigation, which requires collaboration between multidisciplinary teams and that is beginning to show the first progress.
