Outbreak surveillance dashboard built in ArcGIS by Merki Dago, epiGuider’s GIS & data analytics expert — cholera response, Borno State, Nigeria, 2026.
Three ways to get help with your data.
Every engagement starts with the operational question, not the tool. We scope the work with you, build it, test it with real data, and hand it over with training so your team can keep it running.
Automated reporting systems
Replace days of copy-paste with one script. R or Quarto pipelines that read your line list, DHIS2 export or Excel database and produce the weekly or monthly report in Word, PowerPoint, PDF or HTML — same layout every time, French or English.
Dashboards & data systems
Surveillance and programme dashboards in Power BI, Shiny or Excel; database design, data dictionaries, validation rules and cleaning workflows; DHIS2 indicator mapping and data-quality reviews.
Institutional training
Hands-on courses for your team in KoboToolbox, Excel for epidemiology, R, Power BI, QGIS and DHIS2 — built around your own datasets and workflows, delivered on site or online, with manuals your staff keep.
Four data sources, one script, one report.
A hospital and community-health project in Central Africa was collecting emergency, paediatric, health-centre and community case-management data in four separate Excel files. Each month, staff rebuilt the same charts by hand for the medical report.
- Standardised the four datasets and built a single R/Quarto pipeline that reads them directly.
- Produced an interactive dashboard for the team and a formatted Word report for the coordination — same figures, no re-typing.
- Field staff now replace the data files and run one script; French labels and the original report structure were kept so nothing had to be relearned.
Four workbooks, manual chart updates each month, figures that differed between the dashboard and the written report.
One command produces the dashboard and the report from the latest data, with the same numbers everywhere and a reproducible audit trail.
Five steps from question to handover.
Clarify the question
A 30-minute call to understand the decision your data needs to support.
Review what exists
Your data, systems and current reports — what to keep, what to fix.
Agree the scope
A written proposal with deliverables, timeline and a fixed price.
Build and test
Developed with your real data, reviewed with you at each milestone.
Train and hand over
Documentation and training so your team owns the result.
A small team of specialists, not a marketplace.
Every project is led by an epidemiologist and delivered by people who have run surveillance, research and data systems in the field — in English and French.
