Our project approaches this challenge with the intent of providing some solutions to the recent Covid-19 outbreak by stressing on key factors that have affected the virus in some areas around the world. Areas of high pollution, for example, were observed to have a very high number of Covid-19 cases. We constructed a research explaining all possible factors and indicators that have the ability to impact the virus.
We carefully looked into all the challenges, analysed them and picked the one we think is the most suitable for us to work with, one that has the most resources and information. We used Nasa's satellite data concerning the change in NO2 concentrations in China over the course of 2 months. We used only software programs to make this research and we had some problems figuring out how to counter some of the bad effects that factors may have. We finally made some recommendations and solutions to counteract these side effects.
