This repository contains source code of a plugin for QGIS. The plugin is coded to enable users to do temporal analysis using data stored in the shapefiles.

Data stored on shapefiles are baseline prevalence of species that are collected and measured by executing interventions or control programs. The species such as Hookworm are vectors causing the Soi Transmitted Dieases (STH).

This plugin allows users to generate useful maps in chronological order.

This work is financially supported by the World Health Organization (WHO). The code is developed in collaboration with Magnus Heitzler @ETHZ, Zürich

The plugin was initiated based on the research work of Antonio et al. 2013
