These articles describe the Endeavour open source technologies and services.
The technologies and services cover the following areas
- Decision support services, for example calculating risks of heart disease or stroke
- Ontology services for using large scale ontologies and managing libraries of value sets
- Query services for maintaining feature and query libraries
- Address matching and UPRN allocation for single individuals, households or large populations.
All of these services have live and development deployments and are free to access.
they all operate in two ways:
- Use of web or online user interfaces to enable users to use the services directly.
- User of APIs for systems to interoperate so that the resources can be used as part of an integrated offering
These technologies form part of a broader set technologies, many of which have been adapted and used by a large scale NHS London Data linkage and normalisation Service covering a population of 7 million registered citizens
- Information model services. Describes the Endeavour terminology server and applications designed to aid with modelling information, building libraries of artefacts such as value sets, query definitions and data models.
- Decision support services. Describes a set of internationally used health prediction functions, access via Web APIs
- Address matching (UPRN ASSIGN) application and APIs, which use a transparent assured and published approach to matching addresses in order to allocate a UPRN
- Health record APIs. Describes a set of APIs for accessing health records using FHIR.
- Architectures of data service. Describes a high level architecture for a service, based on these technologies, that processes millions of patient records.
- Github pages. Lists a number of github sites containing the repositories holding the open source software that implements the services
