What Are Some Examples of Successful Data Integration?
There are several examples of successful data integration in epidemiology. The Global Influenza Surveillance and Response System (GISRS) integrates data from various countries to monitor influenza activity worldwide. The National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) combines survey data with clinical and laboratory data to assess the health and nutritional status of the U.S. population. These examples demonstrate the power of data integration in enhancing our understanding of health issues and improving public health outcomes.
