AnophelesModel-package.RdAnophelesModel is a framework for assessing impact of malaria vector control interventions by taking into account species- and/or geographically- specific mosquito bionomics.
The package incorporates an extensive, curated database of vector species bionomics and intervention effects which is used to parameterize an entomological model of malaria dynamics. The model is used to calculate, for a given species of Anopheles mosquitoes, the reductions on vectorial capacity by various vector control interventions. The AnophelesModel package can be thus used to compare vector control intervention impact across different Anopheles mosquito species and thus help prioritizing interventions according to local entomological characteristics.
