Welcome to SynthPops#

Note: SynthPops is no longer actively maintained.

SynthPops is used construct synthetic networks of people that satisfy statistical properties of real-world populations (such as the age distribution, household size, etc.). SynthPops can create generic populations with different network characteristics, as well as synthetic populations that interact in different layers of a multilayer contact network. These synthetic populations can then be used with agent-based models like COVID-19 Agent-based Simulator (Covasim) to simulate epidemics. SynthPops is available on GitHub. For more information on Covasim see Covasim on GitHub.
