community-driven COVID-19 forecasting effort, including creating and
maintaining an ensemble forecast from the models submitted to the
[COVID-19 Forecast Hub](https://covid19forecasthub.org), and a [forecast
evaluation dashboard](https://delphi.cmu.edu/forecast-eval/).

- **March 2020.** We launched [COVIDcast]({{< relref "covidcast" >}}), the
nation's largest public repository of diverse, real-time indicators of
COVID-19 activity, freely accessible through the [Epidata API]({{< apiref

- **2019.** We became a CDC National Center of Excellence for Influenza

- **2016.** We developed and deployed
[influenza nowcasts](https://delphi.cmu.edu/nowcast/) for the CDC, state
departments of public health, and the public.

which provides real-time access to epidemiological surveillance data.

- **2013.** We began supporting the U.S. CDC's Influenza Division in advancing
and growing a [scientific community around influenza
forecasting](https://www.cdc.gov/flu/weekly/flusight/index.html). We've been
[perennial leaders in forecasting
