Abstract
⺠We studied distribution of 2 geohelminths Ascaris lumbricoides and Trichuris trichiura in Brazil. ⺠We identified the important variables for the diseases occurrence. ⺠With the variables identified we were able to produce predicted diseases maps. ⺠These maps show the possible priority areas for intervention. ⺠With theses type of study we could reduce costs on interventions in big countries like Brazil.
