Real-time tracking of pathogen evolution
Nextstrain is an open-source project to harness the scientific and public health potential of pathogen genome data. We provide a continually-updated view of publicly available data alongside powerful analytic and visualization tools for use by the community. Our goal is to aid epidemiological understanding and improve outbreak response.

The GISAID Initiative promotes the rapid sharing of data from all influenza viruses and the coronavirus causing COVID-19. This includes genetic sequence and related clinical and epidemiological data associated with human viruses, and geographical as well as species-specific data associated with avian and other animal viruses, to help researchers understand how viruses evolve and spread during epidemics and pandemics.
GISAID does so by overcoming disincentive hurdles and restrictions, which discourage or prevented sharing of virological data prior to formal publication.
The Initiative ensures that open access to data in GISAID is provided free-of-charge to all individuals that agreed to identify themselves and agreed to uphold the GISAID sharing mechanism governed through its Database Access Agreement.
All bonafide users with GISAID access credentials agreed to the basic premise of upholding a scientific etiquette, by acknowledging the Originating laboratories providing the specimens, and the Submitting laboratories generating sequence and other metadata, ensuring fair exploitation of results derived from the data, and that all users agree that no restrictions shall be attached to data submitted to GISAID, to promote collaboration among researchers on the basis of open sharing of data and respect for all rights and interests.

PeakFinder shows a 360° panoramic view from an arbitrary viewpoint of your choice. To render the panoramic views PeakFinder uses an elevation model that is integrated into the App. A database with a peak directory is included as well. For these reasons PeakFinder does not need an online connection for rendering the panoramic view and works completely offline from anywhere in the mountains.
Current location
Press the GPS button bottom right to see the panoramic mountain view from your current location.
Camera mode
By pressing the camera button you can overlay the image of your camera with the panorama drawing.
Image adjustment
Lookout for a prominent mountain around you or for the sun position. Then drag the panorama drawing to the correct postion of the camera image.
Snapshot
Use the shutter button to take take a high-resolution photo of your panoramic view. You can edit the photo later and share it with your friends.
Photo editor
After pressing the shutter button, a mini view of the photo will appear next to the compass. If you press on it, you can edit and export the photo with the mountain names.
Edit photo
Open the PeakFinder menu 'Photos' to fine-tune your images and export them. By zooming in or using the telescope you can identify many new mountain peaks. You may also import any image from other sources.
Export photo
You can show or hide the mountain silhouettes by clicking on the mountain symbol in the lower right corner of the display. Below you will find the export function. With this button you can save the photo in the gallery or export it to any destination.
Calibrate compass
If the panoramic view shudders or is not pointing in the correct direction, you can calibrate the compass. Press the icon below the compass for further instructions.
Compass correction
If the panoramic view is still not aligned correctly after the calibration of the compass, you may correct the alignment manually. Just drag the panorama display to the desired direction. The small point circling the compass symbol indicates the correction.
Activate compass
If you hold your device upright, the panorama is automatically aligned with the direction of the compass.
Deactivate compass
If you hold your device flat, you can manually adjust the panorama by using touch gestures.
Touch mountain name
Touching a mountain name brings up additional information about this peak. If you then press on the bird, you can 'fly' on this mountain.
Telescope
If you tap on the middle of the display, a 'telescope' appears. With this, you can also identify less prominent mountains.
Fly up
By touching the arrows on the left you can fly vertically up and down. Doing this you can see what is hidden behind the mountain range.
Sliders
On the bottom left you'll find a button with sliders. With these sliders you may correct the compass direction, set the visibility range, and change date/time of the solar and lunar orbit.
Viewpoint selection
Via the menu option 'Viewpoint selection' you can discover any mountain landscape from a random location in the world.
Visible peaks
Via the menu option 'Visible peaks' you will receive a list of all mountains visible from your current location. PeakFinder will also show you where this mountain is located.
Coverage
Via the menu option 'Coverage' you can install or remove additional areas from other mountain regions.
