About This Page:

This page contains links to the various IHME interactive data visual tools. The interactive data visuals provide opportunities for exploring GBD data and results at the global, regional, national, and local levels. Click the green links to access the tool of choice.

GBD Visualization Tools

GBD Compare: Analyze updated estimates of the world’s health for 369 diseases and injuries and 87 risk factors from 1990 to 2019 in this interactive tool. Use maps and treemaps, arrow diagrams, and many other charts to compare causes and risks within a country, compare countries with regions or the world, and explore patterns and trends by country, age, and sex. Results at the subnational level are also available for select countries. Drill down from a global view into specific details. Compare expected and observed trends. Watch how disease patterns have changed over time. Learn which causes of death and disability are having more impact and which are waning.

GBD Compare - India: Analyze data about India’s health levels and trends from 1990 to 2019 in this interactive tool. Use treemaps, maps, arrow diagrams, and other charts to compare causes and risks and explore patterns and trends by age and sex. Drill from a national view into specific details. Compare expected and observed trends. Watch how disease patterns have changed over time. See which causes of death and disability are having more impact and which are waning.

MortViz: is the visual overlay for all-cause mortality analysis for 5q0 (probability of death between birth and age 5) and 45q15 (probability of death between age 15 and 60 years). ​Best used to explore the input data, modeling steps/ effects, and final results for child and adult mortality.

CoDViz: is the visual overlay for CODEm (the cause of death ensemble model) that is used to estimate cause-specific mortality for GBD diseases and injuries.​ Best used to look at the input data for each cause-specific mortality model as well as the effects of all of the data processing steps​

EpiViz: With this interactive tool, you can explore data inputs and epidemiological estimates from the GBD 2019 project. The majority of diseases, injuries, and risk factors were modeled using DisMod-MR 2.1, a Bayesian mixed-effects meta-regression modeling tool developed for GBD analyses. Initial estimates are made at the global level then sequentially revised down to the national and subnational levels using data that are progressively more detailed with respect to geography and time.

Starviz: The main purpose of the tool is to visualize the availability and quality of data used in cause specific mortality estimation, for each location in the GBD.

Garviz: This tool serves to help visualize how garbage coded deaths (i.e. deaths coded too vaguely or implausibly) are redistributed to the underlying causes of death.
