The NM-IBIS Query System provides a simple-to-use interface that allows a user
to step through data selection options and perform custom queries of New Mexico's
public health databases.
What is a custom query?
A custom query is an interface (Web pages) where the user can select a dataset
(e.g., birth) and a measure (e.g., count) and then limit or aggregate the results
by year, age group, Health Region, etc. to obtain data in a table, graph and/or map. Available datasets are listed below
as well as on the left navigation buttons in this section. Measures can include rates, counts, survey
topics, top 10 lists, averages, etc. The available selections for filtering the data and
defining cross-tabulations depends on what is available in the data set.
Basic steps to follow:
- Select the dataset using the left navigation buttons.
- Select a measure. Click on one of the blue bars to see a
list of measures.
- Build your query. On the QueryBuilder page, click on a blue bar
to expand the step. Make selections to build your query.
- Submit query. After you have finished making selections
click on the "Submit" button to run your query.
- View and/or modify your results. From the results page you
can select/change a chart, export to Excel, use the "Modify Query/Return to QueryBuilder" to
modify your query selections or start a new query. For more information about
these features and step by step examples see the
NM-IBIS Query System Tutorial.
See the
Resources and Help pages for more query system information.
