This chapter is focused on the use of maps to summarize the principal epidemiological features behind heterogeneities of dengue virus (DENV) transmission. The nature of the epidemiological data that can be used for mapping is described and how various local and national maps utilize that data is illustrated. Global maps of current and potential future dengue distributions are presented and their use to inform control efforts and epidemiological research is discussed.
