Health observatory dashboard can assist in promoting the quality of academic and governmental services by generator high-quality information. The aim of this research is to describe the stages of designing and launching the national public health dashboard. This study was conducted with a qualitative approach and designing a web application using C#, ASP.NET and JQuery languages. The required data were gathered via 2 sources: (1) reviewing existing documents, and (2) gathering expert opinions. The dashboard is developed in 3 sections, including a conceptual model of the indicators, a page for selecting the indicators, and metadata of each indicator. The indicators are demonstrated in 3 classes based on data sources (surveys and routine data collection), health effects (mortality, morbidity, risk factors, service coverage, social factors affecting health, health system functions, financial protection, population indicators, and macro indicators), as well as a plan, including the health reform plan. The page for selecting the indicators includes 190 major indicators encompassing the 3 mentioned areas. The metadata of each indicator includes the indicator name, its definition, its last figure, its source, the section for descriptive and comparative diagrams (the indicator's trend, provincial distribution, and international comparison of the indicator), and policy options. The Health Observatory System of Iran has been launched. The credibility of this system and user satisfaction depends on implementation of the health observatory calendar, qualitative control of the path of the recorded data, and national determination of policymakers.
健康观测站仪表盘可通过生成高质量信息来协助提升学术和政府服务质量。本研究旨在描述国家公共卫生仪表盘的设计与推出阶段。本研究采用定性方法，使用C#、ASP.NET和JQuery语言设计一个网络应用程序。所需数据通过两个来源收集：（1）审查现有文件，（2）收集专家意见。仪表盘分为三个部分开发，包括指标概念模型、指标选择页面以及每个指标的元数据。指标根据数据源（调查和常规数据收集）、健康影响（死亡率、发病率、风险因素、服务覆盖、影响健康的社会因素、卫生系统功能、财务保护、人口指标和宏观指标）以及一项计划（包括卫生改革计划）分为三类展示。指标选择页面包括涵盖上述三个领域的190个主要指标。每个指标的元数据包括指标名称、定义、最新数据、来源、描述性和比较性图表部分（指标趋势、省级分布以及指标的国际比较）以及政策选项。伊朗健康观测站系统已启动。该系统的可信度和用户满意度取决于健康观测日历的实施、记录数据路径的质量控制以及政策制定者的国家决心。
