Why Epcon?
With a multidisciplinary team of experts in GIS, Health and Data Science, and having its roots in South Africa, innovations to overcome the challenges in low resource settings and underserved communities are embedded in our DNA. When data is sparse, uncertain, complex and distributed, and its stakeholders need insights and understanding in remote areas, this is where Epcon starts to grow and creates value for those involved.
Use Cases
​
Our core technology has demonstrated the use of its bayesian reasoning models in different projects. Due to its generic model, we completed projects in epidemic mapping, predictive analysis and have developed innovative diagnostic tools.
We continue to innovate through collaborations with industry partners and allow for the use of our technology for social good. Find out more!
