Campaign parameters¶
The parameters described in this reference section determine the interventions used as part of a campaign to control the spread of a disease and the outbreak of the disease itself. Interventions are configured in the campaign file. They are enabled in the configuration file by setting the parameter, Enable_Interventions, to 1. The configuration file also indicates the name of the campaign file.
Warning
The Outbreak must be the last event in the campaign file or none of the interventions will take place.
EMOD supports a variety of supported campaign interventions. It is worth noting that each intervention contains multiple parameters used to configure that specific event. For example, the distribution of bednets behaves differently in the model than does the use of larvicides. It is therefore important to ensure that interventions are configured correctly and applied to the appropriate level target (individual versus node).
This framework enables rigorous testing of possible control strategies to determine which events or combination of events will best aid in the elimination of disease for specific geographic locations.
Like the configuration file, the campaign file is a JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) formatted file. For information on JSON, see EMOD parameter reference. However, the configuration file is mostly a flat list of JSON key-value pairs while the campaign file is structured as an array of campaign events that contain many nested JSON objects. For more information on how to set up the elements in a campaign file, see Create a campaign file.
Warning
Parameters are case-sensitive. For Boolean parameters, set to 1 for true or 0 for false.
The tables below contain only parameters available when using the malaria simulation type.
Contents
Events array¶
The campaign file contains an Events array with one or more CampaignEvent elements and a Use_Defaults parameter. If Use_Defaults is set to 1, the simulation will use the default values for required parameters that are not configured in the campaign file. If it is set to 0, you must configure all required parameters.
{
"Events": [{
"Event_Name": "Campaign Event 1",
"class": "CampaignEvent"
}, {
"Event_Name": "Campaign Event 2",
"class": "CampaignEvent"
}],
"Use_Defaults": 1
}
Campaign event¶
To distribute an intervention, you must configure a campaign event, an event coordinator, and the intervention. The campaign event configures when the event occurs (Start_Day) and where it is distributed (Nodeset_Config). The event coordinator is a nested JSON object in Event_Coordinator_Config. For more information on how to structure this file, see Create a campaign file.
{
"Event_Name": "Campaign Event Example",
"class": "CampaignEvent",
"Start_Day": 1,
"Nodeset_Config": {

Event coordinators¶
The Event_Coordinator_Config configures who can receive the intervention (for example, Target_Demographic and Demographic_Coverage) and which intervention is distributed. The intervention is a nested JSON object in Intervention_Config.
{
"Event_Coordinator_Config": {
"class": "The event coordinator that will be used.",

Waning effect¶
Waning effect parameters are used with interventions such as vaccines, drugs, and bednets. It has six different classes. Each class specifies a different waning effect and uses a different combination of the waning effect parameters.
The waning effect parameters are a nested JSON object and can be configured using several different parameters such as Killing_Config, Waning_Config, Blocking_Config, and Mortality_Config. The following example uses Killing_Config. See the specific intervention sections for the supported parameters.
