(ĐN)- A delegation from the UN Development Program (UNDP) and the World Health Organization (WHO) has recently worked with Dong Nai provincial Center for Disease Control to launch the dengue fever forecasting Model Satellite-based system (D-MOSS) in the province.
The project, funded by the UK Space Agency and is led by the HR Wallingford -- a British civil engineering and environmental hydraulics consultancy, will be implemented in Hanoi and Khanh Hoa, Dak Lak and Dong Nai provinces during 2019-2021.
It uses a combination of satellite information, weather forecasting and historical data on previous outbreaks to create an early warning system for potential dengue danger zones.
