Figure 1 Two-dimensional standard Gaussian kernel of search radius 3 km used to map geographical variations in mean lifetime partners and point-prevalence of concurrency in sexually active men across the surveillance area The Z axis shows the weights given to each cell. The greater the distance from the centre of the kernel, the lower the weight assigned to that cell in the community-level calculation.

Figure 2 Age-standardised geographical variations in mean lifetime partners (A) and point-prevalence of concurrency (B) in sexually active men across the surveillance area Obtained by a standard Gaussian kernel of radius 3 km (main roads are superimposed). The Z axis is proportional to the value of the community-level sexual behaviour covariate for any given geographical location.

Figure 3 A comparison of female age-standardised HIV incidence by mean lifetime partners and point-prevalence of concurrency among sexually active men in the surrounding local community (as shown in figure 2) Error bars show 95% CIs.
