Tremendous advancements have been made in HIV treatment and prevention during the last 40 years that zero new HIV cases has become an attainable goal declared by international agencies. However, new cases of HIV infection persist.
The emerging field of geospatial science is positioned to play key role in the reduction of continued HIV incidence through technology-driven interventions and innovative research that gives insights into at-risk populations. As these methods become more utilized, findings consistently show the important role of location and environment plays in HIV incidence and treatment adherence. This includes distance to HIV provider, locations of where HIV transmissions occurs compared to where people with HIV reside, and how geospatial technology has been leveraged to identify unique insights among varying groups of those at increased risk for HIV, among others. Given these insights, leveraging geospatial technology would play a prominent role in achieving zero new cases of HIV infections.
综述目的：在过去的 40 年中，艾滋病病毒治疗和预防方面取得了巨大进展，国际机构宣布零新发艾滋病病毒感染病例的目标已经可以实现。然而，新的艾滋病病毒感染病例仍在持续出现。
最新发现：新兴的地理空间科学领域有望通过技术驱动的干预措施和创新研究，在减少持续艾滋病病毒发病率方面发挥关键作用，这些研究深入了解高危人群。随着这些方法的应用越来越广泛，研究结果一致表明，地点和环境在艾滋病病毒发病率和治疗依从性方面起着重要作用。这包括到艾滋病病毒提供者的距离、艾滋病病毒传播发生的地点与艾滋病病毒感染者居住的地点之间的关系，以及地理空间技术如何被用来在那些感染艾滋病病毒风险较高的不同群体中发现独特的见解等。有鉴于此，利用地理空间技术将在实现零新发艾滋病病毒感染病例方面发挥重要作用。
