The analytical backbone of Subnational Tailoring
The SNT Pipeline Library is the analytical engine that transforms national and global malaria data into standardized, reproducible analytical outputs. By connecting directly to national data systems and embedding validated workflows, the SNT Pipeline Library turns complex, one-off analyses into reusable code packages that can be rerun, updated, and extended over time — creating a durable analytical foundation for subnational malaria planning.
Malaria analyses are often conducted through fragmented workflows: data pulled from multiple systems, cleaned manually, analyzed through ad-hoc scripts, and stored on individual computers. This makes analyses difficult to reproduce, hard to audit, and challenging to update over time. The SNT Pipeline Library replaces this model with a shared, transparent, and continuously improving analytical environment, where data pipelines are standardized, documented, and reusable across countries and years. This ensures that decisions presented in the SNT Explorer are not static snapshots, but the result of a continuously updated and country-owned analytical process.
The SNT Pipeline Library is implemented in OpenHEXA, an open-source platform for collaborative data integration and analysis in public health. OpenHEXA enables teams to securely connect, manage, analyze, and document data within a shared workspace, supporting the development of robust and auditable analytical pipelines. Within this environment, SNT analysts can:
The SNT Pipeline Library generates the indicators that power the SNT Explorer. While the pipeline library focuses on rigor, consistency, and data integrity, the SNT Explorer translates these outputs into an interactive environment where programmes can explore scenarios and finalize decisions.
