The use of linear array pushbroom images presents a new challenge in photogrammetric applications when it comes to transforming object coordinates to image coordinates. To address this issue, the Best Scanline Search/Determination (BSS/BSD) field focuses on obtaining the Exterior Orientation Parameters (EOPs) of each individual scanline. Current solutions are often impractical for real-time tasks due to their high time requirements and complexities.

Anophelines are predominant malaria vectors, with varied distribution, and influenced by environment and climate. This study, in Ghana, modelled environmental suitability for Anopheles stephensi, a potential vector that may threaten advances in malaria and vector control.

To determine the vulnerable areas relating to CL in Iran, we applied two models, MaxEnt and RF, for the projection of the future distribution of the main vectors and reservoirs of CL. The results of the models were compared in terms of performance, species distribution maps, and the gain, loss, and stable areas.

Selecting the best periods of the year to monitor the habitats of larvae can be effective in better and faster control of malaria outbreaks. In this article, high-risk times for three regions in Iran, including Qaleh-Ganj, Sarbaz and Bashagard counties with a history of malaria prevalence were estimated.
