El Niño Driven Disease Forecasting (ENDCast) is an advanced web application and framework designed to provide early warnings of infectious disease outbreaks influenced by the El Niño Southern Oscillation. Developed in collaboration with international climate and health organizations, ENDCast communicates the likelihood of disease outbreaks over the next six months, empowering companies and public health stakeholders to make informed decisions at local, national, and regional levels. The initial prototype delivers monthly forecasts for dengue, malaria, and leptospirosis outbreaks in key hotspots during the 2023/24 El Niño event.
