“…Five authors proposed a study considering the whole city (ids: 21, 41, 50, 64, 66) or very populated areas (id: 60). Various authors aggregated the data at the neighborhood level, considering dengue diffusion at fine scale linked with Aedes flight, or human density and proximity to Aedes presence (ids: 5,6,7,9,14,18,24,28,49,54,56,57,58,59,61,67,70,71,73,78). According to individual authors justifications, we interpreted the choice of a landscape factor, considered at a given geographical unit of analysis, by its link to one or several mechanisms involved in the dengue transmission process (Table 4): 1. ecological factors favorable to Aedes presence and development through direct entomological observations, or elements of the landscape favoring the presence of breeding-resting sites; 2. probabilities of human exposure to Aedes bites at household-level through small-scale proxies associated to the housing type or its characteristics; 3. probabilities of human-vector encounter considered at neighborhood, small and large administrative levels; 4. virus conservation and diffusion through human mobility.…”
