Since the outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) epidemic, the geographic information system (GIS) has played an important role in explaining the epidemic distribution, characteristics of regional transmission, risk assessment, and early prediction and warning, which greatly helped the disease control and prevention. In this study, the application of GIS in COVID-19 prevention and control was reviewed, hoping to provide reference for future improvement in the prevention and control measures.
