Example 1. Model simulation of the spatial distributions of infected cases in the Rio de Janeiro Municipality during the 2015–2016 epidemic season. At time 0 (November 1, 2015) a very small number of cases are located in a small region in the eastern central region of the Municipality. The spatial distributions are graphed at time=1 (week 45 in 2015), time=4 (week 49 in 2015), time=10 (week 3 in 2016), time=15 (week 8 in 2016), time=20 (week 13 in 2016). The cases concentrate in the eastern central region of the Municipality. Top: Density plots. Bottom: Heatmap plots (color magnitude scaled at each time point)
