Michelin maps (IMAGE)
Caption
Penn State researchers digitized paper maps of roads and rivers in Central and West Africa that were printed between 1960 and 2020 from a single Michelin series. The team compared features of the transit networks around Ebola virus disease outbreak locations at the time when each outbreak occurred against case numbers in the early transmission period of each outbreak to help understand how infrastructure for human movement impacts outbreak trajectories.
