EPS

Enhanced Passive Surveillance Analyst Workstation

Screenshot of the AgConnect Enhanced Passive Surveillance (EPS) web application that consists of a 2D map of the south-western U.S. and various counties colored within Arizona and New Mexico. The map is surrounded by numerous dashboard components providing various modeling data and information. Overlayed on the image is an iPad showing a screenshot of the mobile app with Texas counties color-coded and a graph of data.
A system for integrating and analyzing syndromic surveillance data captured from mobile apps and other relevant sources. The data is aggregated and combined with embedded visualization and analysis tools to help determine baseline conditions in order to detect any anomalies that may signal the onset of an animal disease outbreak. This is one perspective of the AgConnect system.
