The development of the mapping from traditional methods (manual) to the modern drawing methods (Computer) is an important step in the mapping, as the modern digital maps play a big role in the geographical analyses in all branches.
There are many software in this field have been used such as Corel Draw which is used for geographical health mapping, through which has been mapping the Prevalence of cancer infections in Iraq based on the Central Statistical Organization data taken from the Ministry of Health data which showed the number of cancer diseases in all area of Iraq for 2005 and 2006, through drawing two maps and use the methods of circles and survey shading in the cartographic representation.
