Welcome

This is a technical guide for the IMPACT Malaria (IM) Data Hub, developed by Population Services International (PSI), to support IMPACT Malaria technical team to navigate, maintain and use the IM Data Hub.

The IMPACT Malaria Data Hub is the IMPACT Malaria project monitoring system database for IM indicators. It is a web based database in a District Health Information Software 2 (DHIS2) instance and it houses all IM indicator data for project monitoring and use. It is primarily designed with data users in mind, and so its configuration comes with approaches specifically designed to enable monitoring and promote the use of IM data.

The IM Data Hub is used in IM countries in Africa and Asia and it collects a tremendous amount of data in the following tracks:

  1. Case management
  2. Malaria in Pregnancy
  3. Seasonal Malaria Chemoprevention
  4. Global Technical Leadership.

It is used by multiple partners at different levels, from Ministries of Health (MoHs), National Malaria Control Programs (NMCPs), donors like the President’s Malaria Initiative (PMI), implementers (PSI, Jhpiego, University of California San Francisco (UCSF)) to track project monitoring and performance.

The IM Data Hub has two instances:

  • A development instance at dev.imdatahub.org hosted on a ST-3 plan from BAO Systems since Nov 22nd, 2018 for prototyping, testing and piloting
  • A production instance at imdatahub.org hosted on a ST-3 plan from BAO Systems since Nov 27th, 2019 for actual monitoring and reporting

This guide provides all the information and the technical specifications you need to know about the IM Data Hub. It’s an all-inclusive guide on the IM Data Hub and it complements other materials on DHIS2 configuration, as well as training in the IM Data Hub.
