The Chap Modeling Platform

Chap is a Climate & Health Modeling Platform that brings together disease forecasting models into a unified ecosystem, connecting researchers with cutting-edge epidimiological models to policy makers and health practitioners. It makes complex modeling workflows accessible to users, automates rigorous model evaluation, provides a broad range of generic convenience functionality available to modellers, and integrates directly with DHIS2, the world’s leading health information system.

We here provide technical documentation tailored to:

• Model developers

• Platform contributors

• System administrators wanting to set up Chap with connections to DHIS2 and the Modeling App

For more general information about the Chap project, we refer you to the Chap Modelling Platform wiki.
