Abstract
Sri Lanka is at its 3rd phase of COVID-19 pandemic. Sri Lanka has a very efficient public health system. Though very comprehensive, the present disease surveillance system lacked real time epidemiological information. The computer and mobile applications were developed to provide illustrative, epidemiological information for real-time disease surveillance as opposed to the existing paper-based system, to be relevant in a world interconnected via the internet and geographical information systems. The new system well supplemented the existing disease system while providing detailed information for prompt COVID-19 control and prevention
