Abstract
Resumo
The aim of this paper is using TerraMEframework to develop a model that contributes inunderstanding the spatiotemporal behaviour ofdengue transmission and the strength of controlstrategies. During the implementation of ourmodel, it was necessary to adopt rules and inputparameters, which represent potentialdeterminants factors for dynamic transmission ofdengue fever. The use of these rules allowssimulating scenarios of epidemics in the absenceand in the presence of dengue transmissioncontrol measures.
