Figure 1From: Seroprevalence of malaria in inhabitants of the urban zone of Antananarivo, MadagascarMap of Antananarivo with its 192 districts ("fonkontany" in Malagasy) and rice fields located by satellite images. A comparison of satellite images in different seasons made it possible to locate the rice fields (in light grey) and to differentiate them from the other types of vegetation (in white: bare soil, vegetation, other crops).
