Our project addresses the challenge by taking in critical data on the spread of Covid-19 globally and then creating a user interface that visualizes risk indicators and provides recommendations that local governments can use to make fast life-saving decisions. We use data from countries around the world that visualizes the various risks that can cause an outbreak.
We used the most critical data that can predict outbreaks that can be used to help government officials make faster decisions. We're a global team located in Pakistan, Egypt, Cyprus (Russian trapped there), and the USA. We used Miro to develop ideas, pull together our research, and create a user interface. We communicated with the Discord App in writing and on voice chat. Github was used as our code repository.
