Modeling and Validation of Environmental Suitability for Schistosomiasis Transmission Using Remote Sensing
BACKGROUND: Schistosomiasis is the most widespread water-based disease in sub-Saharan Africa. Transmission is governed by the spatial distribution of specific freshwater snails that act as intermediate hosts and human water contact patterns. Remote sensing data have been utilized for spatially expli...
