Real-Time Surveillance and Ecosystem Intelligence

Beyond diagnosis, AI is being used to address delayed malaria surveillance data. In many rural areas, manual reporting creates lags that hinder outbreak response. The Ocular system integrates real-time data into Uganda’s Health Management Information Systems (HMIS). By incorporating environmental factors like mosquito breeding patterns, rainfall, humidity, and ITN coverage, AI models can forecast outbreaks more accurately and guide geographically targeted interventions. Collaboration with environmental health experts and net distribution teams ensures contextualized, actionable insights for the Ministry of Health.
