Ecologic niche modeling (ENM) is a growing field with
many potential applications to questions regarding the
geography and ecology of disease transmission.
Specifically, ENM has the potential to inform investigations
concerned with the geography, or potential geography, of
vectors, hosts, pathogens, or human cases, and it can
achieve fine spatial resolution without the loss of information
inherent in many other techniques. Potential applications
and current frontiers and challenges are reviewed.
