Yearly Local Indicators of Spatial Association (LISA) cluster maps for scrub typhus incidence in Fujian Province, 2012–2020.
LISA spatial cluster map shows the center of the cluster in color. H-H indicates a statistically significant cluster of high scrub typhus incidence values; H-L represents high scrub typhus incidence values surrounded with low incidence values; L-H represents low scrub typhus incidence values surrounded with high incidence values. The base layer of the map was obtained from Resource and Environment Science and Data Center (https://www.resdc.cn/Datalist1.aspx?FieldTyepID=7,1).
