Situational awareness is important for both early warning and early detection of a disease outbreak. We will describe a suite of tools developed at Los Alamos National Laboratory that provide actionable information and knowledge for enhanced situational awareness during an unfolding event. The BRD is a searchable database, a one stop shop for disease surveillance resources and can be used for validating information received about disease outbreaks. The BaRD is a searchable database that catalogs and classifies epidemiological model-specific information to allow facile selection. The SWAP is an app to provide a context for a rapidly unfolding event through graphical visualization.Downloads
