From: Geostatistical analysis of disease data: accounting for spatial support and population density in the isopleth mapping of cancer mortality risk using area-to-point Poisson kriging

Figure 4

County maps of lung and cervix cancer mortality risks computed using alternative estimators. The fill color represents the risk estimated using the following approaches: global and local empirical Bayes smoothers (EBS), and area-to-area (ATA) Poisson kriging. The color legend applies to all the maps of the same region; the class boundaries correspond to the deciles of the histogram of original rates.
