Tupaia in numbers: how real-time data is helping us visualise health systems

We've taken the middle of the year as an opportunity to take a step back, see what we've learned and reflect on what we've achieved since we launched in 2017.

Without the help of our dedicated health workers who register and analyse health data and our talented team of software developers who bring to life this information with visual, mapping dashboards, Tupaia as we know it wouldn't exist. Here are some facts and figures that reflect how our health resource mapping tools are using real-time data to help visualise health systems.

What's next for Tupaia?

In the next 12 months, we'll be starting exciting new partnerships in conjunction with the DFAT's Indo-Pacific Centre for Health Security, including:

Working with STRIVE PNG to help with malaria resistance mapping in PNG, and
Working with WISH Fiji to undertake predictive environmental health mapping in Fiji.

If you haven't seen Tupaia in action yet, you can see how we're crowd sourcing clinic data from health clinic around the world by exploring Tupaia's health mapping resource online.

BES’ headquarters are on Wurundjeri land near Merri Creek in Naarm (Melbourne), Australia. For thousands of years, Merri Creek provided Aboriginal people with many of the essentials of their day-to-day lives including water, timber and bark for building shelters, plant life for food and medicinal purposes, and animals for food.

We acknowledge the Wurundjeri people who are the Traditional Custodians of that Land. We would also like to pay respect to the Elders past, present and emerging of the Kulin Nation and extend that respect to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people across Australia.

Our acknowledgements extend to the traditional owners of the lands on which we work across the Pacific—including Tāmaki Makaurau (Auckland), where we recognise Māori as the Tangata Whenua of Aotearoa. BES commits to upholding their tino rangatiratanga over their lands, resources and taonga as described by te Tiriti o Waitangi.
