Outbreak Detection: Early identification of disease outbreaks can be achieved by monitoring trends and anomalies in the data. Resource Allocation: Data-driven insights can guide the allocation of healthcare resources and prioritization of public health interventions. Policy Development: Evidence from the Atlas can inform policy decisions and the development of preventive strategies. Research: Epidemiologists can use the data for hypothesis generation and testing, contributing to the broader body of scientific knowledge.
