自然和人为突发公共卫生事件造成的社会、政治和经济混乱促使公共卫生部门努力扩大生物监测范围，提高疾病检测、警报、响应和预测的及时性、质量和全面性。不幸的是，获取、呈现和可视化健康情报信息多样性的努力受到其广泛分布在不同领域、多级政府和复杂的机构间环境的阻碍。要在公共卫生领域实现这种新的态势感知水平，需要在获取、分析和传播信息的方法上进行根本性的文化转变。信息“融合”的概念可能会提供扩大数据访问、分析和信息交换的机会，以更好地为公共卫生行动提供信息。 （美国公共卫生杂志。2010；100：1237-1242。doi：10.2105/AJPH.2009.180489）
Social, political, and economic disruptions caused by natural and human-caused public health emergencies have catalyzed public health efforts to expand the scope of biosurveillance and increase the timeliness, quality, and comprehensiveness of disease detection, alerting, response, and prediction. Unfortunately, efforts to acquire, render, and visualize the diversity of health intelligence information are hindered by its wide distribution across disparate fields, multiple levels of government, and the complex interagency environment. Achieving this new level of situation awareness within public health will require a fundamental cultural shift in methods of acquiring, analyzing, and disseminating information. The notion of information "fusion" may provide opportunities to expand data access, analysis, and information exchange to better inform public health action.
