You’ve set your action thresholds and you’re ready to use them to guide your control program, but how do you calculate abundance anomalies or vector index quickly with your latest data? VectorSurv enables users to make real-time, data-driven control decisions using built-in tools in the VectorSurv Gateway and through other popular software tools like Tableau, Power BI, Python, and R using your VectorSurv surveillance data. This presentation will review the decision making and reporting capabilities available to VectorSurv users and will highlight ways vector control agencies are using these tools to make evidence-based vector control decisions to limit the spread of vector-borne diseases.
