Abstract :
There are many ways a pandemic spreading of a disease is influenced. This paper focuses on simulation of the pandemic influenza and the graphic representation on the maps. For this reason we need to build maps by stitching the counties that contain cities and localities, the encoding of these elements using different colours on the map, the generation of the neighbour relationship, and finally the simulation.
