Fenix| An Integrated Assessment

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.

The Phoenix Project

Summary

The Phoenix Project proposes to integrate resources derived from Earth Observation with available socioeconomic data, in order to discover or improve our understanding of the impacts of COVID-19. The proposed solution is to compile this data, which comes from several sources, on a single platform in order to be able to have a more general and complete view of the impact that the pandemic had on the world and on the way of life of its inhabitants. This project becomes important because it allows us to have a greater understanding of the facts and events that occurred during this period.

How We Addressed This Challenge

"An Integrated Assessment" is a challenge that, in short, proposes to integrate data from Earth observation with the available socioeconomic data. Our project aims to create a platform that compiles this data into information that reflects on the impact of COVID-19 in the current world context. The project collects information from sources available from NASA and other aerospace agencies, as well as from agencies and governments about socioeconomic data.

How We Developed This Project

We use it to make a determination of where the highest pollution rate is. A qualitative analysis was carried out, and the data from the agencies that can be cross-checked to create the platform. Time to perform, difficulty seeing the solution.
