 This study proposed a methodology to identify residential land parcels with potential mosquito habitats using remote sensing techniques. The study used high-resolution, multi-spectral imagery to detect surface water and incorporated vector-based data layers into a GIS to identify parcels with detectable water. The results showed that 535 out of 147,000 parcels were identified as having water, while only 682 were known to have swimming pools. Of these 682 parcels, 19 had backyards with enough vegetation to obscure the presence of a swimming pool from the satellite. The remaining 128 parcels did not have sufficient surface water to indicate their presence as actual mosquito habitats. Therefore, it is likely that swimming pools located on these parcels could potentially serve as mosquito habitats and should be inspected by mosquito abatement personnel.
