It includes repeated observations from freshwater human water-contact sites, along with associated metadata relevant to detection and analysis, such as date, time, observer information, site delineation, and linked environmental covariates. Because the data were generated through community-based monitoring across contrasting ecological settings, users should account for uneven sampling effort, strong between-site heterogeneity, class imbalance, and context-specific relationships when using the dataset for inference or prediction.</p> 2026-04-06T15:23:38Z Dataset Dataset 10.6084/m9.figshare.31943346.v2 https://figshare.com/articles/dataset/Modeling_dataset_on_i_Biomphalaria_i_spp_snail_hosts_in_sub-Saharain_Africa_Uganda_DRC_and_Chad_snail_occurrence_environmental_geomorphological_and_detection_variables/31943346 CC BY 4.0
