ECDC Virtual Academy (EVA)

The tool accepts case-based surveillance data for HIV, containing a minimum required set of variables. The tool also accepts aggregated data of the numbers of HIV diagnoses, AIDS cases and deaths, that can be used alone or in combination with case-based data in the modelling module. The support file types are: rds (R native file storage format), txt, csv, xls, xlsx Each can be compressed as zip archives for reducing upload time.

There are several required attributes/variables by the tool to run the adjustments. The upload file must contain all these attributes/variables names. Different names of variables are accepted but the variables must be coded in the specific way.
