Description: Tsetse-transmitted animal trypanosomiasis is a complex disease that directly and indirectly has an impact on Africa's crop and livestock agricultural development. In this paper, state-of-the-art spatial tools are applied to study the variety of agro-ecological settings in West Africa with a view to providing decision support to the management of the tsetse and trypanosomiasis problem according to the prevailing agro-ecological conditions.
