Overview
This page presents contributions by Spotfire and our partners to the global effort to fight the COVID-19 pandemic. The work includes accessing curated COVID-19 data sources; visualizing outbreak status and trajectories, and modeling the effects of interventions and required hospital resources. It is being used to help hospitals and public health authorities allocate resources and reduce the impact of the virus.
The overarching goals of this effort are to:
- Provide a data-driven, statistical review of issues & analytics work in the space
- Contribute data, analyses, and software tools to the global effort to fight the COVID-19 pandemic
- Bring a visual analytics and data science perspective, including the recognition of the many sources of variability and potential for a wide array of outcomes
Live Spotfire COVID-19 Application
The COVID-19 Spotfire dashboard has visualizations that show the current outbreak status, growth trajectories, rate of spread, and effect of interventions. You can use it to see global patterns, and then interactively drill into activity in your region using data at the country, state/province, and county levels.

Highlights include:
- COVID-19 Global Overview time lapse
- Regional overview time lapse
- US hotspots: NE
- US hotspots: MI/IL, SE
- Effective reproduction number time lapse
- Reproduction Number analytics time trends & predictions
- Case trajectories in these states
- Cartogram showing movement from west to east coast

Download the Spotfire Starter Template to Build your own COVID-19 Application
-
The downloadable Spotfire template allows users and partners to get started with COVID-19 analysis quickly by providing access to a variety of useful data sets:
- Johns Hopkins University CSSE Public data on global Coronavirus Cases, Deaths, and Recoveries at the Country, Province, and US County level
- US Census Bureau data on populations at the Country, US Province, and US County level
- Disease Virulence data aggregated from multiple sources for various diseases
- The starter template Includes scripts and a data function that downloads and cleans the latest data.
- The Johns Hopkins data connects to a GitHub repository and enables a daily refresh, so users may always have the latest available data.
- The Spotfire DXP cleans and preps this data for easy analysis, including using standardized Country, Province, and County Codes which are directly usable with Geocoding tables provided in the Spotfire Library by default, in the "GeoAnalytics" folder.

Dataset - Actions by local governments
This community article has a dataset with Actions by local governments that was gathered by Spotfire employees across the globe. We hope it will be a valuable contribution to examining best practices and effects of preventive measures across different regions as ways to "flatten the curve" of COVID-19 cases.
Results & Data Science Methods
We are issuing updates, through our blogs and webinars, to the current outbreak results derived from our application as well as to the evolving data science methods used to generate the results.
