SurveillanceEventCoordinator

Note

This campaign class and associated parameters are currently in beta release and have not yet been fully tested.

The SurveillanceEventCoordinator coordinator class listens for and detects events happening and then responds with broadcasted events when a threshold has been met. This campaign event is typically used with other classes, such as BroadcastCoordinatorEvent, TriggeredEventCoordinator, and DelayEventCoordinator.

Note

Parameters are case-sensitive. For Boolean parameters, set to 1 for true or 0 for false. Minimum, maximum, or default values of “NA” indicate that those values are not applicable for that parameter.

EMOD does not use true defaults; that is, if the dependency relationships indicate that a parameter is required, you must supply a value for it. However, many of the tools used to work with EMOD will use the default values provided below.

JSON format does not permit comments, but you can add “dummy” parameters to add contextual information to your files. Any keys that are not EMOD parameter names will be ignored by the model.

The table below describes all possible parameters with which this class can be configured. The JSON example that follows shows one potential configuration.

Action_List

array of JSON objects

NA

A list of possible actions to take if a particular threshold is met. An action is taken when the specified threshold value is less than the number of incidence counted. If there are multiple actions listed then the action with the highest threshold value, that is also less than the number of incidence counted, is selected. The list cannot be empty.

Counter_Type

enum

NA

NA

PERIODIC

Counter type used for surveillance of events. The counter is triggered by events in Start_Trigger_Condition_List and the counter stops when it receives an event in Stop_Trigger_Condition_List or the listening duration expires. Possible values are:

PERIODIC

Once triggered, events are counted during the period (in days) as set in Counter_Period. At the end of the period, the counter will notify Responder with the data accumulated and then start listening again, continuing forever until it is stopped or the duration expires. For example, if the listening duration is 45 days, Counter_Period is 30, and the counter is triggered on day 20, it will never complete the counter period and trigger the responder.

NA

NA

A list of the IndividualProperty key:value pairs, as defined in the demographics file, that individuals must have to be targeted by this intervention. See NodeProperties and IndividualProperties parameters for more information.

Responded_Event

string

NA

NA

“”

A coordinator event, defined in Custom_Coordinator_Events, that is broadcast if Responder responded. More specifically, at the completion of a counting period, if an action is selected, the action events are broadcast and then the Responded_Event is also broadcast. This allows other event coordinators to react to the action events being broadcast.

Threshold_Type

enum

NA

NA

COUNT

Threshold type to indicate how Responder handles the count of events from Incidence_Counter and the thresholds in Action_List. Possible values are:

COUNT

A raw count of events. Also, with COUNT, setting the x_Base_Population configuration parameter can affect the number count by changing the population but it could be very indirect.

PERCENTAGE

Counts the number of individuals that meet the restrictions and then to divide the total number of events by this number. Note that it is possible for an individual to emit an event that might not be counted in the denominator if their demographic restriction attributes changed between the time of the emitted event and the time the denominator was counted.

PERCENTAGE_EVENTS

Percentage_Events_To_Count lists the events that will be counted for the denominator, which will then be used with the specified event for Trigger_Condition_List to be counted for the numerator.
