(July 25, 2006/Harrisburg, Pa.) The Virginia Department of Health (VDH) is deploying GeoDecisions’ patented IRRIS technology to better safeguard the health and welfare of its Commonwealth.
Among many capabilities, IRRIS technology integrates data from various sources, such as real-time weather and traffic, and displays information in a user-friendly map or tabular format.
Using this technology, VDH employees across the Commonwealth have the ability to access, analyze, visualize, and share certain public health data in order to identify trends, track disease outbreaks and vaccines, and resolve public health threats. IRRIS can support local health issues, as well as major regional, state, and national events.
When complete, the application will provide an easy-to-use, Web-based interface for access to static and real-time information in an intelligent and intuitive map-centric environment.
