In-depth information in monitoring signs of malaria from operational polar-orbiting satellites
Examples of country-specific models for predicting malaria area (1 and 4 km2 resolution) and intensity
Information on the how the effects of climate change on malaria outbreak area and intensity can be monitored
A new Vegetation Health (VH) methodology to estimate vegetation moisture, temperature and moisture/temperature conditions as indicators of malaria vector activity
Advice to userson the application of VH technology for early assessments of malaria area, intensity and risk level
Remote Sensing for Malaria is intended for an audience of public health practitioners, environmentalists, and students and researchers working in spatial epidemiology and disease prevention.
