Background:
Health data management during disasters enables responders to assess the needs of survivors, efficiently allocate resources, and monitor survivors' health conditions. However, government agencies need to interpret health data in real time during disasters because the volume and complexity of such data can hinder timely decision-making.
Objective:
In this study, we aimed to develop a visual interface for Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR)-based data from various sources, using the daily report form of the World Health Organization (WHO) Emergency Medical Teams Minimum Data Set (EMT MDS) as a template and ensuring compliance with the SATUSEHAT platform.
Methods:
The proposed solution involves creating a dashboard application within a web-based system to visualize health data using FHIR, leveraging the WHO EMT MDS disaster profile. The interface includes Overview, Location, and Demography pages that display information in tables, graphs, and maps. This application was developed using JavaScript and React. The dataset consisted of 13,300 synthetic patient records generated using Synthea, subsequently modified with GPT-5, and stored on the Health Level 7 (HL7) Application Programming Interface (HAPI) FHIR server.
Results:
We developed a dashboard application based on the WHO EMT MDS Daily Reporting Form comprising 3 main pages: Overview, Demography, and Location. The Demography page contains several sections, including the total number of patients, health conditions, outcomes, relationships, and protection. The Location page lists all health care facilities, along with their corresponding locations, on a map. Each Location page displays detailed information regarding the organization and demographics of the respective location.
Conclusions:
The dashboard application demonstrates that health data collected in accordance with FHIR standards can be integrated and presented in a form suitable for disaster response. This dashboard has the potential to support disaster management agencies by enabling real-time, data-driven decision-making during disaster response.
