Description: 

Survival of flu virus in the environment is determined by many environmental factors.  We currently have a predictive model for cases, with country level data on environmental factors for Avian Influenza in Egypt, but we are hoping to reduce the scale of the model to the individual coordinates, with the help of satellite data, to improve the accuracy of the model.
