“…The potential benefits and advantages of SyS have been reported briefly in this paper, and more extensively elsewhere (Dórea et al, 2011). These benefits could be strong motivators for the implementing a SyS, however, most have not yet been proven in the field (Dórea et al, 2011;Dupuy et al, 2013). Proving these benefits requires observation of functioning livestock SyS, of which there are few at this time.…”

“…The adaptation of SyS to livestock surveillance is new (Dórea et al, 2011;Dupuy et al, 2013), and at this time there is much to be learned and many issues to be addressed. The issue that is perhaps of greatest importance is justifying the effort and expense required to implement a functioning livestock SyS.…”

“…Dórea et al (2011) reviewed SyS systems based on the systematic monitoring of animal populations for outbreak detection and reported 11 animal health SyS systems from 7 countries (Australia, Canada, France, Netherlands, New Zealand, United Kingdom, USA). A more recent inventory of SyS in Europe (Dupuy et al, 2013), based on the wider Triple-S definition of SyS, identified 27 veterinary SyS projects. However, only 12 of these were operational, the rest being in the pilot or exploratory phase, as opposed to 22 (out of 33) active human SyS in Europe (Conti et al, 2012).…”

“…This is likely because SyS in animals is relatively new and also because there is considerable variation among the approaches to SyS for livestock (Dórea et al, 2011;Dupuy et al, 2013). In this paper, we propose, a practical approach to designing a SyS system for livestock and poultry.…”

SummaryCompared with many other diseases, the ever-increasing threat of vectorborne diseases (VBDs) represents a great challenge to public and animal health managers. Complex life cycles, changing distribution ranges, a variety of potential vectors and hosts, and the possible role of reservoirs make surveillance for VBDs a grave concern in a changing environment with increasing economic constraints. Surveillance activities may have various specific objectives and may focus on clinical disease, pathogens, vectors, hosts and/or reservoirs, but ultimately such activities should improve our ability to predict, prevent and/or control the diseases concerned. This paper briefly reviews existing and newly developed tools for the surveillance of VBDs. A range of examples, by no means exhaustive, illustrates that VBD surveillance usually involves a combination of methods to achieve its aims, and is best accomplished when these techniques are adapted to the specific environment and constraints of the region. More so than any other diseases, VBDs respect no administrative boundaries; in addition, animal, human and commodity movements are increasing dramatically, with illegal or unknown movements difficult to quantify. Vector-borne disease surveillance therefore becomes a serious issue for local and national organisations and is being conducted more and more at the regional and international level through multidisciplinary networks. With economic and logistical constraints, tools for optimising and evaluating the performance of surveillance systems are essential and examples of recent developments in this area are included. The continuous development of mapping, analytical and modelling tools provides us with an enhanced ability to interpret, visualise and communicate surveillance results. This review also demonstrates the importance of the link between surveillance and research, with interactions and benefits in both directions.
