This project demonstrates the possibilities of data science applications in the medical field. In an underprepared world in events like COVID-19, applications such as TraceTheBug helps bridge the gap.
As a Team, we believed that as a society it is our duty to contribute in any way possible. With the emerging possibilities in data science and artificial intelligence, we sought to explore an integrating of disclosed data and COVID-19 patient information to provide public health information. To develop this project we used HTML, CSS, and Javascript along with a React.JS front-end framework. We also used Node.js to host our backend REST API. The REST API provides efficient data travel to the front end and hosting of our algorithm processes. Our data comes from several JSON files that are stored in our REST API server.
