Resumo(s)
The cross-border migration management in the eastern part of the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) currently faces a gap in information management while responding to the Ebola outbreak. It is well-established that dynamic relational interactive visualisations are more effective than static non-relational visual data when assimilating complex information. Hence, this project aims to assess the information needs and apply data visualisation to the Ebola outbreak and migration tracking data to deliver effective visualisations for presentation and exploration to thrust insights and impacts in humanitarian stakeholders' decision-making abilities during the Ebola response. An online questionnaire was sent to stakeholders to capture their perception of the visualisations based on effectiveness principles. The results showed high rating levels for all the data visualisation products and demonstrate how data visualisation can enhance the information management cycle and support humanitarian operations during an emergency response.
