Disease Control Strategies Model

In development

The Disease Control Strategies Model is used to compare management strategies that may be used to control an outbreak of CWD among free-ranging hosts.

Geographical Scale

  • 10 km x 10 km

Required Data

  • Sample data
  • Demographic data (specifically harvest data)

User Inputs

  • Location of outbreak
  • Season-year of interest

Outputs

  • Histograms showing number of hosts exposed to CWD given each candidate management strategy
  • Plots depicting the number of hosts exposed to CWD within each candidate strategy arising from environmental, disease, and host forces
  • The best strategy (or combinations of strategies) to attenuate CWD outbreak

More Information

For more information, go to the CWD Data Warehouse User Manual: Disease Control Strategies Model.

Code

To view the code once deployed, go to the GitHub Repository: Disease Control Strategies Model.
