SuperGIS Desktop 3 Selected by National Institute of Infectious Diseases, Japan

  • Rating12345

SuperGeo Technologies is pleased to announce the latest sales achievement in Japan, where SuperGIS Desktop 3 has been selected by National Institute of Infectious Diseases to improve the research outcome and disease control of infectious viruses and diseases. After the World War II, Japan suffered from various infectious diseases from different countries. In 1947, the National Institute of Infectious Diseases was established under the Ministry of Health and Welfare, focusing on the applied research in infectious diseases and public health development. 

Observing the successful experience of Taiwan Center for Disease Control which applied SuperGIS software to the study of disease distribution and medical resources management, the Department of Virology in National Institute of Infectious Diseases consulted with Information & Science Techno-System Co., Ltd, SuperGeo’s reseller in Japan, to install SuperGIS Desktop 3, which supports the researchers to learn more from the distribution of infectious viruses and diseases by GIS technologies. 

SuperGIS Desktop 3 classifies and visualizes complex disease data on map layers, assisting the researchers in the surveillance and management of diverse virus information. The attribute data can also be displayed clearly in dissimilar locations in unique colors, so that the officials can watch the prevention result and cure rate easily. Further medical measures and policies can therefore be designed in a systematic way.  

National Institute of Infectious Diseases, Japan, is also discussing advanced analysis and application by SuperGIS technologies with Information & Science Techno-System Co., Ltd. The next step would be WebGIS solutions for the public to query medical information in real time.
