Dengue risk prediction in illegal dumpsite of housing area by using geospatial analysis

Malaysia suffered from several dengue epidemics with a highly contagious health threat in the last few decades. Analyses of the incidence number of dengue cases and the illegal dumpsite by using the Geographical Information System, GIS, standard deviational ellipse, SDE, produces a scientific-based...
