The application of drones for mosquito larval habitat identification in rural environments: a practical approach for malaria control?

2020-08-06

Abstract excerpt

Spatial and temporal trends in mosquito-borne diseases are driven by the locations and seasonality of larval habitat. One method of disease control is to decrease the mosquito population by removing habitat and/or reduce the likelihood of larvae developing into adults, known as larval source management (LSM). In malaria control, LSM is currently considered impractical in rural areas due to perceived difficulties i...
