Overview: Go.Data is a collaborative project coordinated by WHO and conducted in cooperation with partners of the Global Outbreak Alert and Response Network (GOARN). The Go.Data tool is available globally to WHO staff, member states and Partners to support and facilitate outbreak investigation focusing on field data collection, contact tracing and visualisation of chains of transmission. The briefing package will introduce the Go.Data tool and provide an orientation of the key features and functionalities of the Go.Data software.

Learning objectives: By the end of this briefing, participants should be able to:

  • state what Go.Data is and is not;
  • describe the context of potential application of Go.Data in an outbreak investigation;
  • describe the type of data Go.data handles and what Go.Data can do with that data; and
  • recall the Go.Data IT infrastructure and how the Go.Data tool is supported.

Course duration: Approximately 1.5 hours

Certificates: A Confirmation of Participation is available to participants who complete at least 80% of the course materials.
