ERGO (Oxford, UK) is with us since the early days. We were together in many leading Pan-European
projects on vector-borne diseases (EDEN, VBORNET, VECTORNET). ERGO provided the spatial modelling
component of VECMAP and is part of the group with whom we develop FARSEER, the next generation early
warning systems for vector-borne diseases.

With IRIDEON (Barcelona, Spain) we are developing Smart Mosquito Traps (VECTRACK project). These
traps will automatically link to our VECMAP software package through a wireless network. The
combination of VECTRACK and VECMAP will allow VECMAP users to save up to 80% on sampling costs. This
is also a critical part of FARSEER.

With LUMENCY (Brussels, Belgium) we are developing Wireless Sensor Networks (SENZITALL project) to
measure micro climate in pest habitats. This will allow us to improve pest population dynamics
models at the local scale. These networks will provide added value to both VECMAP and SMARTSENZ.

We are 16% owner of ID MAPPS (Inverness, Scotland). Together with ERGO, SRUC and NHS we are
developing a Web and Mobile App for the improved management of Lyme Borreliosis and the prevention
of tick bites (LymeAPP project). After Scotland this will be expanded to the rest of the British
isles and continental Europe.
