This article discusses how archaeological sites in Sierra Leone, and by extension much of West Africa, can be identified through vegetation patterns detectable in very high-resolution satellite imagery.

Further study on relevant technology is needed in Western and Eastern Equatoria States South Sudan. Both Remote Sensing (RS) and Geographic Information System (GIS) are useful tools that could be incorporated into decision-making processes to prioritize target areas for vector control strategies related to tsetse fly management.

A map was generated using RS and GIS techniques based on data collected from eight streams in four Payams within Kajo-Keji County, South Sudan. The study aimed to identify the spatial distribution of Glossina fuscipes fuscipes (G.f.) tsetse flies as vectors for Trypanosoma brucei gambiense infections.

The research involved deploying 56 unbaited biconical traps in various ecosystems believed to be habituated by G.f. flies, with Global Positioning System (GPS) coordinates recorded at each site. The study lasted two years and focused on identifying the spatial distribution of G.f., which is crucial for controlling trypanosomiasis within endemic foci.

Glossina fuscipes fuscipes plays a vital role as vectors for HAT in Kajo-Keji County (KKC) South Sudan, while tsetse flies are considered primary biological vectors of Human African Trypanosis (HAT) across sub-Saharan Africa.
