Receiver Operating Characteristics curve for the occurrence of LF transmission and associated model validation statistics: AUC = 0.81 (95 % CI: 0.78 – 0.83; sd: 0.01), sensitivity = 0.73 (95 % CI: 0.64 – 0.79; sd: 0.02), specificity = 0.76 (95 % CI: 0.7 – 0.83; sd: 0.02), proportion correctly classified (PCC) = 0.75 (95 % CI: 0.72 – 0.78; sd: 0.01) and Kappa = 0.5 (95 % CI: 0.44 – 0.56; sd: 0.02). The environmental suitability threshold which provided the best trade-off between sensitivity, specificity and proportion of correctly classified was 0.360.
