Key Features of SORMAS

Surveillance Dashboard

Case data and statistics are displayed in real-time in the Surveillance dashboard. Various indicators are calculated automatically. The epidemiological curve shows the evolution of the number of cases broken down into categories over a time period. The case status map shows the geographical distribution of cases.

Data is being displayed on a map of the country to easily locate clusters and hotspots

The dashboard is available for cases, contacts and samples and can be filtered to show exactly the data you need.

Graphs can be exported in various formats (PNG, JPG, PDF, CSV and more) for easy reporting.

The visualization of infection chains is key to assess the spread of diseases and support decision-making related to control measures.

Environmental Module

This module is an important step for integrating the OneHealth approach into SORMAS and provide the possibility to analyze the impact of the environment on human and animal health.

The environmental module allows users of SORMAS to create important environmental locations like water sources, wastewater facilites, forests and many more and track samples and results taken from these locations in real time.
