CAPTURA - Potential Tools Integration ( Data-Flo & Microreact )

Added by Steven (eSHIFT) Uggowitzer over 2 years ago

I was just reviewing the work done by CAPTURA at www.ivi.int.  This is in association with Fleming Regional Grant .    See https://captura.ivi.int/activities

CAPTURA team have made use of 3 key technologies in their work .  These are:

  1. Epicollect5  -- https://five.epicollect.net/  https://www.pathogensurveillance.net/    In particular, have a look at :  https://www.pathogensurveillance.net/our-software/    These are some really interesting links.
  2. Data-Flo --  https://data-flo.io/   https://github.com/data-flo/code     "Open-source, modular, and extensible data integration " 
    1. Open-source, modular, and extensible data integration
      1. Effortless integration through data transformation pipelines.
      2. Friction-free data sharing.
      3. Compose pipelines within the user interface.
      4. Funded and used by CDC.
  3. Microreact https://microreact.org/ <-- wow, this one looks like several amazing visualisations!!!!
    1. Open data visualisation and sharing for genomic epidemiology
      1. Definable and editable metadata fields for to display on visualisations.
      2. Pin-point time specific events using the time time-slider.
      3. Endorsed by CDC, ECDC and PHE for routine investigation of public health incidents
      4. Visualise and explore trees linked to geographic locations.

And finally they have a CAPTURA "Unstructured Data" Data Warehouse.   The project link for this is here https://captura.ivi.int/    https://captura.ivi.int/about  ( Includes several partners like WHONET https://www.publichealthsurveillance.com/  Bill MacWright and his team from PHSG Prof. David Aanensen and team from the Big Data Institute .

Questions:

  1. Should we approach the Centre for Genomic Pathogen Surveillance ?  
  2. Are these packages relevant to our platform?  
  3. Should I/we do any work to see what it would take to  integrate into AoS.Health/AMR?
  4. Might microreact.org be the right kind of visualisation tool for other work like the recent Zambia RFP???
