^*Definition of spatial and temporal categories [34]:
Spatial categories
Spatial categories were defined according to the spatial resolution of sampling
Neighbourhood: Sampling occurred within a district
Regional: Sampling occurred within an administrative division of a country
Intranational: Sampling occurred within a nation
International: Sampling occurred in two or more nations
Temporal categories
Temporal categories were defined according to the temporal resolution of sampling
Daily: The timing of the usual activities of participants’ days was captured
Periodic: Intermittent movement at intervals was captured. In this paper, these intervals are defined as longer than a day [e.g. weekly, monthly], but not capturing seasonal variations
Seasonal: Movement relating to certain seasons of the year was captured, thus capturing seasonal variations of movement
Migration: Movement from one’s place of abode to settle in another country
