Abstract

The Influenza Data Summary (IDS) is a tool that provides a unified view of influenza activity in the United States. It currently incorporates data from portions of the U.S. Influenza Surveillance System and BioSense. The IDS allows users to customize dashboards, interactive maps, and graphs from each of these data sources. The purpose of this paper is to provide an overview of the IDS and to discuss current features and future plans for improvement.
