Florida influenza-like illness data
Description
Daily influenza-like illness (ILI) incidence rates at 67 Florida counties
during years 2012-2014. The ILI incidence rates were collected by the
Electronic Surveillance System for the Early Notification of Community-based
Epidemics (ESSENCE) that was developed by the Florida Department of Health.
Researchers can have an access to the ESSENCE database after a proper online
registration. Moreover, some weather conditions during years 2012-2014 can
be obtained from the official website of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric
Administration of the United States. The ILI dataset used here contains 8
variables, including County, Date, Lat, Long,
Time, Rate (ILI incidence rate), Temp (temperature)
and RH (relative humidity), from the two databases mentioned above,
where Long and Lat refer to the longitude and latitude of the
geometric centers of each Florida county, respectively.
