Frequently asked questions

What is the ILI API?

ILI API is a powerful tool that provides daily forecasts for influenza-like illness risk, along with 28-day weather and pollen data. It enables organizations to monitor and analyze flu trends.

What is Influenza-Like Illness (ILI) data?

ILI data refers to information on symptoms and cases that resemble the flu or influenza. We collect daily and historical ILI data from health surveillance systems across the state.

How can ILI API help track influenza trends?

The ILI API allows you to access influenza-like illness risk data as well as comprehensive pollen and weather data to understand the correlation between ILI and the environment.

What information is available in the influenza database?

ILI API provides the requested area's flu risk, pollen, and weather data.

How can I access the flu database?

Log in to the Ambee dashboard to access the ILI API and get 100 daily API calls for free.

What factors contribute to flu risk?

Factors contributing to the flu include seasonal changes, pollen levels, population density, and more. The ILI API helps to understand the relationship between influenza-like illness and environmental triggers, such as temperature, humidity, and pollen.

How can I use flu trends data to make informed decisions?

Flu trends (risk) can be used to forecast outbreaks, allocate healthcare resources, optimize inventory for critical medicines, and implement preventive measures to reduce the spread of influenza.

Can I integrate ILI API with my existing health systems?

Yes, you can easily integrate the ILI API with existing health systems.
