Authorities across the world have turned to AI tools and advanced data analytics to inform measures meant to address aspects such as business shutdowns, stimulus measures, travel restrictions, and self-isolation requirements
FREMONT, CA: Big Data plays a vital role in today’s uncertain socio-economic climate and is expected to continue to do so in the post-COVID world. With appropriate processing and storage support from edge hardware, data will become the next valuable thing after oil.
As the world tries to grasp an image of the post-COVID era, data may hold the key to many people’s new daily functions.
Tracking and Creating Data
Multiple emerging devices are built to produce real-time, hyper-local personal health information meant to ensure citizens’ safety and health in ways such as stick-on sensors that deliver 24/7 respiratory activity tracking, AI-powered long-distance body temperature scanners at the train station, to name a few.
Existing devices with new applications would also help. For instance, smartwatches that monitor quarantine compliance or Internet-connected thermometers to analyze symptom trends. Automated devices empowered with manual tools like contact tracing and healthcare check-in smartphone apps create a completely new health-related data sphere.
New methods for creating health data and location data, in particular, stand as two main areas where much latest information has been brought to bear, but these are not the only ones. Now, real-time trackers appear on social media, and the latest statistical breakdowns have emerged regarding everything from online education to supply chain design. Thus, the pandemic has compelled everyone to become data-producing dynamos.
Analyzing and Implementing Data
Creating volumes of new data highlights additional challenges. The main challenge is that how all this brand-new information can be collated, standardized, aggregated, and applied on a large scale. New technical tools and data trackers are as good as the data analytics that give clarity to the uncovered results.
