Spatial decision support system based malaria elimination surveillance-response framework. This schematic illustrates the SDSS-based framework adopted specifically for Isabel Province, Solomon Islands to guide surveillance-response operations. Key elements of the framework include: 1. Case detection and rapid notification via both passive and pro-active case detection methods; 2. Epidemiological case investigation and classification through automatic case mapping, and treatment and investigation of individual cases; 3. Focus investigation and classification via targeted re-active case detection and entomological assessment, historical case review, and automated GIS-based queries within the SDSS to classify and map transmission foci and generate response areas of interest (AOI); and 4. Focus specific targeted action based on identified AOI geographic areas and the classification of associated transmission foci (see Table 2).
