Plots and maps show the fuzzy intersection (simultaneous favorability) between the favorability for: a Ae. aegypti and dengue infection cases; and b favorability for Ae. albopictus and dengue infection cases. Fuzzy intersection values are shown on the horizontal axes (ranging from 0.1 to 1), grouped in 10 bins of values of equal favorability range. The average favorability values for both mosquito vectors in each bin are represented by solid lines and filled squares, and for dengue infection cases by dashed lines and blank circles, (on the left vertical axes ranging from 0 to 1). Columns represent the percentage of grid cells at each fuzzy intersection bin (on the right vertical axes). On maps, the arrows show inclusion values between both fuzzy intersection models (ranging from 0 to 1). The graphics were made using LibreOffice (https://es.libreoffice.org). The maps were developed using QGIS (www.qgis.org) in the composer tool. The final composition was created using CorelDRAW X8
