Technological advancements are transforming data collection processes in epidemiology:
1. Electronic Health Records (EHRs): Streamline data extraction and improve accuracy. 2. Mobile Health (mHealth): Mobile devices can collect real-time health data and engage participants in remote areas. 3. Big Data Analytics: Advanced computational tools can analyze large datasets to uncover trends and patterns. 4. Geospatial Information Systems (GIS): Spatial data analysis helps in understanding the geographic distribution of diseases.
