Mark from TriSano asked on the list about how to best integrate analysis with other systems. The whole issue of integration has a lot of room in the EpiData Project and a number of tools are already capable of solving various aspects of this. E.g.: 1. EpiC: Batch data conversion, documentation, validation, backup, encryption 2. EpiData Analysis: Reporting systems for repeated analysis. 3. Documentation and examples - see the documentation part of the main website. - in particular study the technical documents. The documentation for EpiC is available from the documentation site and the conversion process of this year for EpiData Analysis and EpiData Entry adds to the diversity of integration possibilities. I expect the whole documentation for this to be ready later the coming year, but would in general say that the path follows this line for using EpIData Analysis with data created in other systems. The first thing would be to know whether exported csv files from the other system can be read. If not we could extend the import routines based on the experiences. Errors or inconsistencies can be reported to the Mantis database. Looking forward to a possible collaboration in this sense. (I will contact TriSano directly off list.). regards Jens Lauritsen EpiData Association

EpiData / TriSano Integration

To introduce myself, I am the Program Manager for TriSano - an open source, next generation disease surveillance and outbreak management application: http://www.trisano.org We just finished planning for TriSano 1.1 and one item we are in the process of determining is if there is a statistical package we should integrate with. EpiData seems to have potential. I thought I would reach out to you to see if you could point us in the right direction for the best way to do this with EpiData. I cc'd a number of my TriSano collaborators.
