Population at risk of Oropouche virus (OROV) transmission. We estimated the population at risk of OROV transmission using the population for 2020 via the WorldPop unconstrained data for the Americas (https://www.worldpop.org/geodata/summary?id=24777; A and the OROV distribution obtained through one-class support vector machines (OC-SVM) hypervolumes (Fig. 3 and 4). Our analysis suggests that 4,920,600 million people overlap with OROV transmission risk map. The right map depicts local incidence, as the proportion of population pixels suitable according to our model, divided by the total population pixels available in each province/state (B). Data for developing this map is available at the Additional file 4. Shapefile of the Americas obtained from NaturalEarth (https://www.naturalearthdata.com/) and maps developed with QGIS 2.18 ‘Las Palmas’ and Adobe Photoshop Elements
