Human population size (e.g. from national censuses) to make extrapolations about dog population sizes and also to help judge populations at risk.
Dog population size, which can be estimated using these techniques, to estimate the amount of vaccines needed for campaigns.
Administrative boundaries, topographical and ecological features to help determine when and where to implement campaigns and to effectively evaluate geographically specific surveillance data.
Dog movements, including sites that could be used to monitor dog movements (e.g. zoo-sanitary inspection points and police check-points) for targeting surveillance efforts.
Information on the management of other zoonotic diseases.
