Distribution and Spatial Pattern Analysis on Dengue Cases in Bangi, Selangor, Malaysia

Abstract
Dengue outbreak has grown rapidly around the developing countries in recent decades. Thus, the need to visualize the distribution pattern is important for further management strategies in Malaysia. The study shows the distribution and spatial pattern analysis of dengue cases reported in the Bangi town located in Hulu Langat district, Selangor, Malaysia in 2017 and 2018. The purpose of this study is to evaluate and determine the spread trend of dengue cases in Bangi. A total of 1687 and 791 cases for dengue-related diseases were reported by the Ministry of Health Malaysia in Bangi district in the years 2017 and 2018, respectively. Three spatial statistical analyses were conducted: Spatial mean center, directional distribution, and standard distant on the distribution of dengue cases reported. This study found that the distribution pattern for dengue cases is concentrated in the east of the region. Spatial mean center and directional distribution for both sets of years have slight differences. Meanwhile, the standard distance for dengue cases reported in the year 2008 is 0.015 to 0.019, which is bigger than dengue cases reported in 2018, showing a standard distance of 0.017 to 0.018.
