The session “Tools and Program Developments for Data Analysis” will cover the latest tools and programs required for effective data analysis. Having the right tools and programs is critical to the success of data analysis. By streamlining the analysis process, ensuring accuracy, and making it easier to collaborate, data analysis tools can help organizations and individual users make better use of their data and gain valuable insights. The session will discuss various tools for data analysis, highlighting their benefits in terms of improving efficiency, accuracy, scalability, visualization, and FAIR principles. Several tools will be introduced: including a) Open Data Format that includes enriched metadata and can be used across various software programs, b) Amnesia data anonymization tool that facilitates the trusted sharing of research data while protecting privacy, c) methodological approaches and data visualization tools focusing on producing and disseminating model based early estimates of key health outcomes, d) SurveyHarmonies, a tool that enables the creation of ex-ante harmonized, multi-language surveys using reproducible research tools compliant with the DDI standards in the R statistical environment, e) visualizing survey data using hammock plots. These tools are developed for various domains and aim to analyse datasets, automate tasks, and visualize results more efficiently. The session will provide a valuable opportunity to communicate the latest developments in data analysis tools and programs.
