Subject: [Dhis2-users] DHIS version 2.12 is released
Hi all,
DHIS 2 version 2.12 is released. We have some great new features for you:
- All analysis tools are working against the analytics Web API. This means that
the system is no longer dependent on the resource-demanding data mart process
and running it is now optional. You can still run data mart and use it for
custom reports but all analysis tools now read from the analytics tables. These
tables can be generated ad-hoc from reports module and scheduled in data
administration module. The analytics API allows you to do a lot more flexible
dimensional data analysis, for instance like this:
http://apps.dhis2.org/demo/dhis-web-pivot/app/index.html?id=otVrkxLmBJT
- In data visualizer module you can now do analysis on all fixed and dynamic
data dimensions. You can select any data dimension and items from the left
menu. You can also use multiple dimensions as filter. In DHIS 2 you can create
dynamic data dimensions through data element group sets, org unit group sets
and categories. For instance we can now create interesting charts where you
compare immunization doses given at facility (fixed) and outreach:
(Log in with admin/district)
http://apps.dhis2.org/demo/dhis-web-visualizer/app/index.html?id=LRFDsb8jcG0
You can make a chart comparing ANC visits for each facility type:
http://apps.dhis2.org/demo/dhis-web-visualizer/app/index.html?id=iRCGbznvyG8
A chart showing HIV testing broken down on gender:
http://apps.dhis2.org/demo/dhis-web-visualizer/app/index.html?id=mKjgsRMJt0H
You can also include data element details (category option combos) directly
under data elements by selecting "Details" as opposed to "Totals" in the drop
down next to the list of data elements:
http://apps.dhis2.org/demo/dhis-web-visualizer/app/index.html?id=wbTNJrvfytf
- In pivot table module we have added support for analysis on category based
dimensions - you can now do analysis based on all fixed and dynamic data
dimensions. All dimensions can be selected from the menu on the left. You can
for instance create a pivot table for vaccine doses given broken down on age
group and facility location like this:
http://apps.dhis2.org/demo/dhis-web-pivot/app/index.html?id=JsmBGbmRlEu
- In pivot table module you can now download your pivot table to your local
computer in Microsoft Excel, CSV and HTML format. The downloaded file will have
the same table layout as you see on the web page. As an example, load a pivot
table by clicking on the link below, then click on "Download" on the top menu,
then "Microsoft Excel" under "Table layout".
http://apps.dhis2.org/demo/dhis-web-visualizer/app/index.html?id=otVrkxLmBJT
You can also use the pivot table to browse the analytics web api and use the
download options under "Plain data source" to retrieve the data response.
- Pivot table now supports data interpretations. Load a favorite, click on
"Share" in the top menu and write your question, comment or interpretation. It
will become visible in the data interpretation feed in the dashboard.
http://apps.dhis2.org/demo/dhis-web-dashboard-integration/interpretation.action
- In GIS you can now include data element details (category option combos) in a
map. For instance you can create a map for ANC 1st visits at facility (fixed)
like this:
http://apps.dhis2.org/demo/dhis-web-mapping/app/index.html?id=YOEGBvxjAY0
- Single events without registration (anonymous events) are now supported in
the Web API. This means that you can send event data from case-based systems
like EMRs directly to DHIS 2, and create mobile clients for event registrations
which send event data over HTTP to DHIS 2. Documentation here:
http://dhis2.org/doc/snapshot/en/user/html/ch25s07.html
- Data entry for single events without registration now works offline, in the
same way as the routine data entry. This implies that you can log onto DHIS 2
in the morning and continue with data entry throughout the day even if Internet
connectivity is lost or intermittent. Even large option sets for ICD 10 codes
work offline, and performance is improved in general. Check it out here:
http://apps.dhis2.org/demo/dhis-web-caseentry/anonymousRegistration.action
- In tracker you can now define program indicators, creating formulas based on
person data elements in order to make more useful analysis:
http://apps.dhis2.org/demo/dhis-web-maintenance-patient/program.action
- In tracker we have a new analysis function which gives completeness for each
program and its program stages:
http://apps.dhis2.org/demo/dhis-web-caseentry/programStageCompletenessSelect.action
- Option sets and data elements of type yes-only are now supported in the
routine data entry module. This will be useful for several use-cases, for
instance when making facility assessment forms. We recommend sticking with
numeric option sets and data elements in routine data entry since text cannot
be aggregated. Check it out by selecting the "Facility assessment" form here:
http://apps.dhis2.org/demo/dhis-web-dataentry/index.action
- Data set report and reporting rate summary now allows you to use all
organisation unit group based dimensions as filters. For instance you can
filter your data set report to only include data for a certain facility type.
Click on "More options" to select the filters in data set report:
http://apps.dhis2.org/demo/dhis-web-reporting/showDataSetReportForm
Same goes for reporting rate summary:
http://apps.dhis2.org/demo/dhis-web-reporting/displayViewDataCompletenessForm.action
- Data entry can now be done through PDF files. This implies that data entry
can be done completely offline and detached from DHIS 2 through the
well-understood PDF format. You can download PDF form templates from the data
set module by clicking on the PDF icon. Forms can later be uploaded through the
import-export module by going to "PDF Data Import". This allows for workflows
where forms are distributed to remote / mostly disconnected areas, filled and
returned by email before uploaded to the central instance.
http://apps.dhis2.org/demo/dhis-web-maintenance-dataset/dataSet.action
http://apps.dhis2.org/demo/dhis-web-importexport/displayImportDataValueForm.action?importFormat=pdf
- Support for "app" extensions. You can now develop stand-alone apps and use
them as extensions to DHIS 2. The apps should be based on javascript and HTML
and use the DHIS Web API for retrieving data. The apps must be packaged
according to the W3 manifest for Web applications. You can upload the apps in
the Apps service module. Documentation here:
http://dhis2.org/doc/snapshot/en/user/html/ch27.html
You can see the admin module here:
http://apps.dhis2.org/demo/dhis-web-appmanager/appList.action
- The analytics Web API resource now supports data responses with table layout.
This means that you can generate ready-made tabular reports in Excel, CSV or
HTML format straight from the analytics API using dynamic input parameters
without defining anything up front. This is an example Excel report generated
on the fly by using the tableLayout, columns and rows query parameters:
http://apps.dhis2.org/demo/api/analytics.xls?dimension=dx:fbfJHSPpUQD;cYeuwXTCPkU&dimension=pe:LAST_12_MONTHS&dimension=ou:LEVEL-3-O6uvpzGd5pu&tableLayout=true&columns=dx;pe&rows=ou
You can read the documentation here:
http://dhis2.org/doc/snapshot/en/user/html/ch25s19.html
You can download the 2.12 release here:
http://dhis2.org/downloads
You will find documentation here:
http://dhis2.org/documentation
Source code is found here:
https://code.launchpad.net/~dhis2-devs-core/dhis2/2.12
The new analytics engine requires that more of your server resources are
dedicated towards the database in favor of the Java VM. It also requires that
you have a fast disk type. We will provide more info about this shortly.
For this release we had source code contributions from PSI and Critical
software - much appreciated. Also thanks to all developers who have worked very
hard to finalize all this in only two months.
Enjoy the new version. Feedback is appreciated.
best regards,
the DHIS 2 development team
