We develop an interactive tool for disease outbreak detection, visualization, and forecasting. The tool is based on the R statistical environment and the shiny package and therefore the code is written entirely in R, but deployment is in HTML. In addition, the choice of the R statistical environment provides access the plethora of R packages and scripts built for disease detection and forecasting. A demonstration tool is created using a 2010 measles outbreak in Zimbabwe.
