Abstract :
Modeling and simulation is often used to predict future events and plan accordingly. Experiments in this domain often produce thousands of results from individual simulations, based on slightly varying input parameters. Geo-spatial visualizations can be a powerful tool to help health researchers and decision-makers to take measures during catastrophic and epidemic events such as Ebola outbreaks. The work produced a web-based geo-visualization tool to visualize and compare the spread of Ebola in the West African countries Ivory Coast and Senegal based on multiple simulation results. The visualization is not Ebola specific and may visualize any time-varying frequencies for given geo-locations.
