The global compendium of Aedes aegypti and Ae. albopictus occurrence

Aedes aegypti and Ae. albopictus are the main vectors transmitting dengue and chikungunya viruses. Despite being pathogens of global public health importance, knowledge of their vectors’ global distribution remains patchy and sparse. A global geographic database of known occurrences of Ae. aegypti and Ae. albopictus between 1960 and 2014 was compiled. Herein we present the database, which comprises occurrence data linked to point or polygon locations, derived from peer-reviewed literature and unpublished studies including national entomological surveys and expert networks. We describe all data collection processes, as well as geo-positioning methods, database management and quality-control procedures. This is the first comprehensive global database of Ae. aegypti and Ae. albopictus occurrence, consisting of 19,930 and 22,137 geo-positioned occurrence records respectively. Both datasets can be used for a variety of mapping and spatial analyses of the vectors and, by inference, the diseas..., , , , # Data from: The global compendium of Aedes aegypti and Ae. albopictus occurrence

# 埃及伊蚊（Aedes aegypti）与白纹伊蚊（Ae. albopictus）是传播登革病毒与基孔肯雅病毒的主要媒介。尽管这两种病原体兼具全球公共卫生重要性，但目前关于其传播媒介的全球分布认知仍零散且匮乏。我们整合构建了1960年至2014年间埃及伊蚊和白纹伊蚊已知发生地点的全球地理数据库。本文将对该数据库进行介绍，其包含关联至点位或多边形区域的发生记录数据，来源于同行评议文献及未发表研究（包括全国性昆虫学调查与专家网络资源）。本文详细阐述了全部数据采集流程、地理定位方法、数据库管理及质量控制流程。这是首个针对埃及伊蚊与白纹伊蚊发生情况的综合性全球数据库，分别包含19930条与22137条经地理定位的发生记录。两套数据集均可用于该传播媒介及其相关疾病的各类制图与空间分析……
