Table 2 Validation statistics for spatio-temporal model for mf prevalence and spatial model for ICT-based prevalence

Model	Correlation	Mean Error	Mean Absolute Error	Coverage percentage of 95 % CI
mf	0.69	1.89 %	4.64 %	70.93 %
ICT	0.86	0.06 %	6.51 %	52.83 %^a, 77.49 %^b

For the ICT data, coverage percentages are presented for the actual intervals^a and for intervals where lower limits turned out lower than 0.01 % those were replaced by 0^b
