The development of the visualization tool of any infectious spreading disease requires an elegant graphical user interface which can show the result of simulation at every time steps. The goal of this work is to provide an effective way to visualize epidemic diseases, e.g., flu, cholera, influenza, etc. in a network for the decision makers to determine the level of epidemic threats in any vulnerable zones. The Gravity and Susceptible, Infected and Recovered (SIR) epidemic models are used to draw a network on the map and simulate the disease status. Thus the results obtained are visualized to give a clear picture of spreading behavior of a disease. This visualization tool provides an understanding for the epidemical analysis of diseases through graphs and network statistics.
