Abstract
Purpose This study aimed to identify the spatial distribution of DHF Incidence and analyzing environment against an incidence of DHF in Limboto, Gorontalo. Method This study was an observational study used cross-sectional design supported by Geographic Information System (GIS) to collect spatial information. Findings - Main result by Poisson regression test showed association between physical environment variable such as precipitation (in same, previous, and previous two months), temperature (in same, previous, and previous two months), humidity (in same, previous, and previous two months), wind velocity (in same, previous, and previous two months). - Variable of precipitation, humidity, and wind velocity in previous two months showed weak coefficient correlation and negative. Practical implications District Health Office Gorontalo may consider physical environment factors on DHF’s prevention program. Originality/value The pattern of DHF incidence following fluctuation of the physical environment. Precipitation in previous two mounts, humidity, and wind velocity in same months.
