BackgroundNo community prevalence studies have been done on chronic respiratory symptoms of cough, wheezing and shortness of breath in adult rural populations in Malawi. Case detection rates of tuberculosis (TB) and chronic airways disease are low in resource-poor primary health care facilities.ObjectiveTo understand the prevalence of chronic respiratory symptoms and recorded diagnoses of TB in rural Malawian adults in order to improve case detection and management of these diseases.MethodsA population proportional, cross-sectional study was conducted to determine the proportion of the population with chronic respiratory symptoms that had a diagnosis of tuberculosis or chronic airways disease in two rural communities in Malawi. Households were randomly selected using Google Earth Pro software. Smart phones loaded with Open Data Kit Essential software were used for data collection. Interviews were conducted with 15795 people aged 15 years and above to enquire about symptoms of chronic cough, wheeze and shortness of breath.ResultsOverall 3554 (22.5%) participants reported at least one of these respiratory symptoms. Cough was reported by 2933, of whom 1623 (55.3%) reported cough only and 1310 (44.7%) combined with wheeze and/or shortness of breath. Only 4.6% (164/3554) of participants with chronic respiratory symptoms had one or more of the following diagnoses in their health passports (patient held medical records): TB, asthma, bronchitis and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease)ConclusionsThe high prevalence of chronic respiratory symptoms coupled with limited recorded diagnoses in patient-held medical records in these rural communities suggests a high chronic respiratory disease burden and unmet health need.

The aridity index also known as the dryness index is the ratio of potential evapotranspiration to precipitation. The aridity index indicates water deficiency. The aridity index is used to classify locations as humid or dry. The evaporation ratio (evaporation index) on the other hand indicates the availability of water in watersheds. The evaporation index is inversely proportional to water availability. For long periods renewable water resources availability is residual precipitation after evaporation loss is deducted. These two ratios provide very useful information about water availability. Understating the powerful potential of the aridity index and evaporation ratio, this app is developed on the Google Earth Engine using NLDAS-2 and MODIS products to map temporal variability of the Aridity Index and Evaporation ratio over CONUS. The app can be found at https://cartoscience.users.earthengine.app/view/aridity-index.

The interactive map creation tools market is experiencing robust growth, driven by increasing demand for visually engaging data representation across diverse sectors. The market, estimated at $2.5 billion in 2025, is projected to witness a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 15% from 2025 to 2033, reaching approximately $7.8 billion by 2033. This expansion is fueled by several key factors. The rising adoption of location-based services (LBS) and geographic information systems (GIS) across industries like real estate, tourism, logistics, and urban planning is a major catalyst. Businesses are increasingly leveraging interactive maps to enhance customer engagement, improve operational efficiency, and gain valuable insights from geospatial data. Furthermore, advancements in mapping technologies, including the integration of AI and machine learning for improved data analysis and visualization, are contributing to market growth. The accessibility of user-friendly tools, coupled with the decreasing cost of cloud-based solutions, is also making interactive map creation more accessible to a wider range of users, from individuals to large corporations. However, the market also faces certain challenges. Data security and privacy concerns surrounding the use of location data are paramount. The need for specialized skills and expertise to effectively utilize advanced mapping technologies may also hinder broader adoption, particularly among smaller businesses. Competition among established players like Mapbox, ArcGIS StoryMaps, and Google, alongside emerging innovative solutions, necessitates constant innovation and differentiation. Nevertheless, the overall market outlook remains positive, with continued technological advancements and rising demand for data visualization expected to propel growth in the coming years. Specific market segmentation data, while unavailable, can be reasonably inferred from existing market trends, suggesting a strong dominance of enterprise-grade solutions, but with substantial growth expected from simpler, more user-friendly tools designed for individuals and small businesses.
