Final Estimates: The reader can find the answer to the Key Estimative Question at the global, regional, national interest and country levels on the Final Estimates page. The Global Estimate Project can also be found on this page. National Interest Matrix: This matrix, created by the INSIGHT Team, catalogs the impact of disease on US interests in each country and region around the world. Analysts scored disease impacts on a 5-point National Interest Impact Scale, with 1 being the lowest score or minimal impact, 2-marginal, 3-moderate, 4-significant, 5-severe. This Matrix and the Methods And Process Report, taken together, give a good overview of the way in which the INSIGHT Team derived the Final Estimates. Methods and Process: This report provides essential background information detailing the analytical processes that the INSIGHT Team followed to support the NIC update of the January 2000 NIE, "The Global Infectious Disease Threat And Its Implications For The United States." This "lessons learned" report describes how the INSIGHT Team developed the project to best answer the Key Estimative and Secondary Questions as well as the wiki method used to carry out this process. Resources: This page is a library of the works collected by the INSIGHT Team throughout the duration of the project. It is also a reference where readers can go to find further information.
