Geographic Information System to Study the Spatial Distribution of Cotton Pink Bollworm, Pectinophora gossypiella (Saunders) (Lepidoptera: Gelichiidae) in Jalgaon District, Maharashtra, India
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: The present study was undertaken to develop risk assessment maps through Geographic Information System (GIS) which is a very powerful tool to organize and process spatial data, making foundation in decision making. The processing and analysis of surveillance data of incidence of P. gossypiella was carried out in ‘ArcGIS 10.4’ software. Studying the pest population distribution using spatio-temporal maps help us to gain the knowledge regarding the tempo of pest population distribution and correlating the same with different weather parameters will help us to understand the factors affecting the population distribution.
