Dengue is a main public health issue around the world and is an epidemic in Brazil. As part of the Brazilian national program to fight the disease, every municipality has a Zoonosis Control Center responsible for health and case surveillance, among other actions. The fieldwork includes routine visiting of houses and strategic sites (e.g. industries and vacant lands), water sampling, container elimination, and larvicide administration. However, the field data are gathered and summarized by hand. In this work, our goal is to ease the collection and visualization of field data to support decision-making. We have developed a mobile system to collect and georeference field data which could then be used to build geospatial and geo-temporal visualizations of indices such as House, Container, and Breteau1 indices. This solution could enhance entomological surveillance and leverage action planning and evaluation. |
