Where There’s a Link, There’s a Way

Since the COVID-19 pandemic began, there has been a proliferation of websites and portals developed to share resources about the topic. Your challenge is to find innovative ways to present and analyze integrated, real-time information about the environmental factors affecting the spread of COVID-19.

The Cure (website by BlowHack)

Summary

The Cure is a website which centralizes, synthesizes and simplifies data surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic in order to make it accessible for every single person regardless of age and educational condition.

How We Addressed This Challenge

Our project provides an easy and illustrative platform that joins all the data related to COVID-19 in a single and trustable place, fighting against fake news and analyzing the environment situation for all over the globe connected to the moment we live.

How We Developed This Project

Since we all study in the computer engineering area, we have chosen this challenge to put our knowledge to the test and join our efforts in order to find a great solution that could help humanity. We began with a complete analysis of the task, then we came up with the main problems and solutions and finally we chose a path to follow. We've searched for relevant informations to our project in NASA database and we also illustrated some of the articles provided inside our website prototype.

To create a visual prototype we've chosen an User Experience plataform (Adobe XD) to develop the idea of the projected website and during this journey we sometimes dealt with the lack of criativity and the short amount of time to increase our research. Thankfully, in the end we can assure that the result was exactly what we expected.
