LISA cluster maps and LISA significance maps of TB incidence, Morocco, 2011–2014. LISA indicates the presence or absence of significant spatial clusters or outliers for each province/prefecture. The province of Larache and the province of Kenitra formed spatial clusters of high TB incidence from 2011 to 2014, the prefecture of Skhirate-Témara and the province of Benslimane from 2011 to 2013, the prefecture of Salé from 2012 to 2014, and the prefecture of Tanger-Assilah from 2013 to 2014. Other areas formed temporary spatial clusters, including the prefectures of Mohammadia (2012), Tétouen- M’diq Fnidaq (2013), Meknes (2014), and the province of Khemissat (2014). All these cited provinces/prefectures were shown in red. Significant spatial clusters of low TB incidence were located in the east spatial regime. The provinces of Errachidia and Ouarzazate were consistently significant even at more demanding level (i.e., P = 0.01 instead of 0.05). Two spatial outliers (in pink) were identified, namely the prefecture of Fahs Anjra (in the north) and the province of Guelmim (in the south)
