BACKGROUND
The International Classification of Functioning, Disability, and Health includes important considerations of environmental context in understanding disability, but the environmental impact is often difficult to measure.
PURPOSE
Demonstrates the use of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and Global Positioning Systems (GPS) in rehabilitation research in assessing accessibility and participation; describes how to use these methods, and presents several considerations in using GIS and GPS in research.
METHOD
Using methods from public health and medical geography, this article describes how to apply GIS and GPS technologies to rehabilitation research to measure community participation and accessibility to resources.
FINDINGS
Directions for using ArcGIS functions and case examples joining these mapping technologies with rehabilitation measures are provided.
CONCLUSIONS
Together with traditional measures, these technologies may provide rehabilitation researchers a more comprehensive approach to assessing accessibility and participation.
背景
《国际功能、残疾和健康分类》在理解残疾问题时纳入了对环境背景的重要考量，但环境影响往往难以衡量。
目的
展示地理信息系统（GIS）和全球定位系统（GPS）在康复研究中用于评估可达性和参与度的应用；描述如何使用这些方法，并介绍在研究中使用GIS和GPS时的几点注意事项。
方法
本文运用公共卫生和医学地理学的方法，描述如何将GIS和GPS技术应用于康复研究，以衡量社区参与度和资源可达性。
研究结果
提供了使用ArcGIS功能的指导以及将这些绘图技术与康复措施相结合的案例。
结论
与传统测量方法相结合，这些技术可为康复研究人员提供一种更全面的方法来评估可达性和参与度。
