Advanced Querying Features for Disease Surveillance Systems 2010-04-09 .txt text/plain 4300 218 58 The objective of the Advance Querying Tool (AQT) is to build a more flexible query interface for most web-based disease surveillance systems. Our prototype system, the Advanced Querying Tool (AQT), allows the investigators to handle complex cases where one can incorporate any data elements available in a disease surveillance system, then mix and match these data elements in order to define valid queries. Table 1 provides examples of how a dynamic query tool exploits combinations of data elements available to disease surveillance systems. The following objectives summarize the design features of the AQT: The tool's interface will help generate queries that can process any kind of data regardless of its source (e.g., emergency room visit, office visit, pharmacy, and laboratory). Making the tool adaptable to many web-based systems requires the AQT to contain all the processing dynamically, including validating the query syntax and changing the contents of the list boxes. ./cache/cord-000925-91fhb66m.txt ./txt/cord-000925-91fhb66m.txt
