Forecasting practice and local hubs

Nowcasting and forecasting of infectious disease dynamics

Turned loose!

We’ve covered a ton of material on creating, visualizing, evaluating and ensembling forecasts.

Now it’s your turn to work more independently on these tasks in our “Sandbox Hub”.

Sandbox hub

Similar to our earlier ILI examples, but with data from multiple locations.
The SISMID ILI Forecasting Sandbox is an actual, live hub.
Check out the interactive dashboard!

Model development workflow

Here is a summary of the forecasting workflow that we have covered in previous sessions:

Your Turn

1. Clone the Sandbox Hub.
2. Build and visualize forecasts from models that you are interested in.
3. Validate and test forecasts.
