Mapping trends in insecticide resistance phenotypes in African malaria vectors

The mean predictions for the prevalence of resistance (susceptibility test mortality) were produced by a model that used susceptibility test data from field populations and a large number of potential explanatory variables. Full details are given in the linked PLoS Biology article.A zip folder is provided for each year from 2005 to 2017. Each zip folder contains a raster comprising of a GRD and GRI file. Each raster has five bands: - band 1 is mortality after alpha-cypermethrin exposure;- band 2 is mortality after DDT exposure;- band 3 is mortality after deltametrin exposure;- band 4 is mortality after lambda-cyhalothrin exposure;- band 5 is mortality after permethrin exposure.The rasters are at a 2.5 arcminute (approx. 5 km) resolution. Each grid cell has a value for the predicted mean prevalence of resistance (susceptibility test mortality) on a scale 0.0 to 1.0.The above data can be visualised and processed in a range of geographical information system packages (e.g. ArcGIS and QGIS) or spatial data packages in R (http://cran.r-project.org/web/views/Spatial.html). In addition, files containing the numerical values behind each figure in the linked article are provided in files S1 to S8.
