B&S - Space Apps Challenge

An Integrated Assessment

Your challenge is to integrate various Earth Observation-derived features with available socio-economic data in order to discover or enhance our understanding of COVID-19 impacts.

Leading factors applied on successful and unsuccessful lockdowns

Summary

Basically, what we are going to do is analyze countries that have applied a lockdown and how successful they were, and justify their success/failure based on a correlation of Earth Observation and Socioeconomic parameters.

How We Addressed This Challenge

Our project adresses the challenge in a way that we want to find out what were the main factors for a lockdown to be successful or a failure.

How We Developed This Project

We thought that the Challenge "An Integrated Assessment" was the most interesting due to the fact that it can contemplate multiple important variables to a country, like GDP, Gini Index and many others and help to explain why a determined region is in a certain situation. And since those are numbers, we can mathematically manipulate them to show a visual representation of multiple situations.
