Interest in mapping the global distribution of malaria is motivated by a need to define
populations at risk for appropriate resource allocation, and to provide a robust framework for …

Malaria transmission is influenced by climate, land use and deliberate interventions. Recent
declines have been observed in malaria transmission. Here we show that the African …

Background The efficient allocation of financial resources for malaria control using
appropriate combinations of interventions requires accurate information on the geographic …

Background Efficient allocation of resources to intervene against malaria requires a detailed
understanding of the contemporary spatial distribution of malaria risk. It is exactly 40 y since …

The aim of this review was to use geographic information systems in combination with
historical maps to quantify the anthropogenic impact on the distribution of malaria in the 20th …

Background Since 2000, the scale-up of malaria control interventions has substantially
reduced morbidity and mortality caused by the disease globally, fuelling bold aims for …

Since the year 2000, a concerted campaign against malaria has led to unprecedented levels
of intervention coverage across sub-Saharan Africa. Understanding the effect of this control …

Background Transmission intensity affects almost all aspects of malaria epidemiology and
the impact of malaria on human populations. Maps of transmission intensity are necessary to …

The public health and economic consequences of Plasmodium falciparum malaria are once
again regarded as priorities for global development. There has been much speculation on …

Background The epidemiology of malaria makes surveillance-based methods of estimating
its disease burden problematic. Cartographic approaches have provided alternative malaria …
