PHE — Corporate ICT — MET Office — Data Linkage for the Development of a Weather Surveillance Module

Descriptions

The aim is to develop a data linkage prototype via an Applications Programming Interface (API) between Public Health England and the Met Office to enable continuous access to Met Office data for ingestion in PHE Environmental Public Health Surveillance System (EPHSS). It is envisaged that this prototype, and the tools developed throughout this project, will be transitioned to an operational service to PHE. The exact details of such service will be defined, and agreed, while working on the prototype. Free, and uninterrupted, data access will be granted in order to enable a seamless transition from the prototype stages to its operational implementation.This project will benefit from leveraging resources from the Met Office Public API project, the Informatics Lab, Scientific Consultancy.
