When a pandemic like the current novel coronavirus (COVID-19) breaks out, it is important that authorities, healthcare organizations and official decision makers, have in place an effective monitoring system to promptly analyze data, create new insights into problematic areas and generate actionable knowledge for fact-based decision making. The aim of this article is to describe an initial work focused on building a comprehensive statistical surveillance dashboard for the epidemic of COVID-19, which can be exploited also for future needs. We propose novel ways of exploring, analyzing and presenting data, using metrics that have not been used previously. We also show the steps necessary to build and operate such a dashboard. As a result of this this work, a set of data exploration and data visualization tools have been proposed which can be instrumental in providing information necessary to manage a crisis like COVID-19 pandemic in a systematic and effective way. The proposed statistical surveillance dashboard can provide formal authorities and other decision makers with valuable insights into problematic areas and help them make critical decisions based on facts and an in-depth data analysis. The dashboard is implemented in an online dedicated website, freely accessible to the readership of this journal.

当像当前的新型冠状病毒（COVID-19）这样的大流行爆发时，重要的是，当局，医疗机构和官方决策者必须建立有效的监视系统，以便及时分析数据，对问题区域产生新见解并产生可采取的行动。基于事实的决策知识。本文的目的是描述一个初始工作，该工作侧重于为COVID-19的流行建立一个综合的统计监视仪表板，也可以将其用于将来的需求。我们提出了使用以前未使用的指标来探索，分析和呈现数据的新颖方法。我们还将显示构建和操作此类仪表板所需的步骤。由于这项工作，已经提出了一组数据探索和数据可视化工具，这些工具可用于以系统和有效的方式提供管理像COVID-19大流行这样的危机所必需的信息。拟议的统计监视仪表板可以为正式机构和其他决策者提供对问题区域的宝贵见解，并帮助他们根据事实和深入的数据分析做出关键决策。该仪表板在一个在线专用网站中实施，该期刊的读者可以免费访问。拟议的统计监视仪表板可以为正式机构和其他决策者提供对问题领域的宝贵见解，并帮助他们根据事实和深入的数据分析做出关键决策。该仪表板在一个在线专用网站中实施，该期刊的读者可以免费访问。拟议的统计监视仪表板可以为正式机构和其他决策者提供对问题领域的宝贵见解，并帮助他们根据事实和深入的数据分析做出关键决策。该仪表板在一个在线专用网站中实施，该期刊的读者可以免费访问。
