The present study describes the basis for the development of a Geographic Information System(GIS) for conducting an epidemiological analysis of human and animal fasciolosis in the Andes. Themethodology proposes the use of various data bases - those derived from epidemiologicalmutidisciplinary studies and environmental data derived from terrestrial stations and remote sensing. Key words : Fasciola hepatica, fasciolosis transmission, Andes, geographic information system,model. INTRODUCTIONOver the last decade, the importance of humanand animal fasciolosis in various south Americancountries has been emphasized in the scientificliterature 1-5 ; indeed, human infection by Fasciolahepatica has recently been declared an importantworldwide health problem 6,7 . Of the countrieslocated on the slopes of the Andes, Peru, Boliviaand Chile are the most severely affected by thisliver fasciolosis 2 - though areas of Ecuador,Colombia and Venezuela are also affected. TheNorthern Altiplano, between Bolivia and Peru, isconsidered to be a hyperendemic zone for bothhumans and animals while the central regions ofChile are hyperendemic in terms of domesticcattle
