Summary
Documentation
Health Protection Scotland (HPS), part of Public Health Scotland (PHS), is leading the Enhanced Surveillance of COVID-19 in Scotland (ESoCiS) programme on behalf of Scottish Government gathering a wide variety of data about COVID-19 from a range of sources, to learn more about the virus and gain an understanding of how it is spreading through the population in Scotland.
Data is via ECOSS (health protection system) and the Test and Protect datasets. NHS Digital have been providing a feed of the UK Gov data into NSS IT which then populates the systems for a full picture.

Access service description
HIC has implemented a remote-access Trusted Research Environment to protect data confidentiality, satisfy public concerns about data loss and reassure Data Controllers about HIC’s secure management and processing of their data.
Data is not released externally to data users for analysis on their own computers but placed on a server at HIC, within a restricted, secure IT environment, where the data user is given secure remote access to carry out their analysis.
