Validation field trials were conducted using WaterScope systems in Juba (May 2022), Kawangware (September 2022), and Addis Ababa (June 2023), with slight modifications made between each trial. a Maps showing water sample types and locations for each trial. Scale bars are 10 km, 1 km and 5 km from left to right. b Compiled E. coli counts split into risk categories for WaterScope and Compact Dry testing methods. c ROC curves plotted for each field trial, generated by calculating binary classifications as the limit of detection is varied stepwise from 0 to 20, using Compact Dry results as reference. Legend values correspond to Area Under Curve (AUC) calculations.
