<![CDATA[Spatial analysis is one of the methods that is often used to observe spreading pattern of infectious diseases. Leprosy is a chronic infectious disease caused by bacterium Mycrobacterium Leprae which spreads through droplets. This study aims to determine the spatial pattern of leprosy using the Quadrat Analysis method, to determine whether there is spatial autocorrelation between regions using Moran's I, Geary’s C, Getis-Ord G, and mapping the spread of leprosy in Gowa Regency. In this study it was found that the spatial patterns of the spread of leprosy in 2016 and 2017 in Gowa Regency was clustered. In 2016 there were spatial autocorrelations with the tests of Moran's I and Geary's C, while the testing of Getis-Ord G did not have spatial autocorrelation between regions. In 2017 there is no spatial autocorrelation between regions using the three tests. In 2016 the vulnerable areas was Barombong, the area that had to be careful with the surrounding areas was Bontonompo and the area included in the safe category was Tompobulu. Whereas in 2017 areas prone to leprosy were Bajeng and Manuju.]]>
