Version 2.1.0
This is the official release for v2.1.0 of the Public Health and Environmental Surveillance Open Data Model (PHES-ODM). It includes the addition a few new parts as a way to debug issues, or respond to new demands among the user-base. The largest change is the addition of two new look-up tables: countries
and zones
. These help to standardize location information to the ISO-2 and ISO-3 and to reduce ambiguity and free-text errors when populating these fields, all while improving interoperability of location metadata. Documentation has also been updated to add more information on protocols. Protocols will be the main focus of the next release.
