REMOTE SENSING AND MODELING TOOLS EXPLORATION FOR HABITAT DELIMITATION OF LEISHMANIASIS TRANSMITTING VECTORS
Leishmaniasis encompasses a group of vector-borne parasitic diseases, characterized by their diversity and complexity, that affect both humans and other vertebrates.They are caused by different species of parasites of the Leishmania genus, which are transmitted by bites from hematophagous female sandflies.This work proposed to model the occurrence
