
There is much more that can be done with what is in place if
users are more aware of capabilities
Training sessions
Increase the number of systematically gathered
elements in the database

Potential New Tools

Systematic collection of CDC activities in one
place for tabular and mappable presentation





All the examples we have shown so far are for
relatively large areas.
Something has been missing from all the maps so far
– CDC activity.
We have the tools to look at much smaller areas – the
areas in which cdc’s operate.
Use of CDC activities within existing structure of
outcome measure – simulation example 1
Improved Outcome Measures, and use of
existing and new data in context of these –
simulation example 2
