Data collection employed in-depth interviews, focus group discussions, self-administration questionnaires, and surveillance platform implementation. Data analysis introduced percentage, mean, standard deviation, paired t-test, and content analysis.

Results: The surveillance and care of psychiatric patients via geographic information systems is a platform that has been working via the internet and linked to the “Nakhonsawan Sookjai” application. After participating in the program, health personnel were satisfied with the surveillance platform at a high level. They had higher mean scores of overall competency, surveillance knowledge, skill and attitude, and motivation in operating the surveillance than before.
