Applications of remote sensing to the identification of the habitats of parasites and disease vectors.
Remote sensing has been largely ignored in the identification of parasite and disease vector habitats. It has a number of advantages, both in improved control and understanding, and should be considered by more field-orientated scientists. Successful and potential applications involving mosquitoes, ticks, trematodes, and tsetse flies are briefly reviewed by Martin Hugh-Jones.
