Automates the processing of verbal autopsy (VA) data from an ODK Aggregate server, through the openVA Pipeline middleware, and ending with a DHIS2 server (with the VA module). VA data are analyzed using the openVA package in R, which is demonstrated with code for an RShiny app in the OpenVA_RShiny repository and described in a vignette.
The documentation for the openVA Pipeline can be found at: http://openva-pipeline.readthedocs.io/
The OpenVA Pipeline has been designed for (and tested on) Ubuntu LTS 16.04.
The steps to install and configure the pipeline can be found in
docs/setup.md. To make the installation easier, there is also a bash shell
script install_software_ubuntu16_04.sh that installs all of the necessary software (the
script requires the sudo password).
