Building a Contagion Graph

Technology Brief: Building a Contagion Graph to Identify the High-risk Areas and People during Viral Infection Spread

The COVID-19 pandemic has the potential to stress public health infrastructures and civic systems to the point of collapse. Because the virus primarily spreads via direct human contact the key to arresting the spread is to identify high-risk geographic pockets and individuals with speed and accuracy.

This technology brief will cover using data to:

• Route constrained resources to the right potential usage pockets. 
• Allow selective, but more stringent, lockdowns of geographic areas. 

Our innovative solution leverages mobile ad data to identify priorities such as individual testing, quarantines, and locations that need sterilization. This information can help healthcare, government, and law enforcement authorities confine the spread of an infectious virus in real-time.
