Covid Safe

ProblemStatement: Currently the only effective way to contain COVID-19 is Social Distancing.India is currently in stage 2, meaning the virus has mostly infected people with foreign travel history, their relatives and acquaintances in close contact. To contain the infection, most effective method will be to ensure that stage 2 Quarantined cases maintain strict social distancing. 

ProposedSolution: 

• We provide a tool to ensure that stage 2 Quarantined cases are following the social distancing practice diligently.

• Using easy cell tower based mobile number tracking and app tracking solutions can track the movement Quarantined cases and raise an alert in case there is any movement observed. The movement trail and approximate location, along with address can be seen on a live dashboard.

• Once the alert is raised, an automated call/sms can be sent to the Quarantined cases to stay back home. Beyond a certain duration and radius of movement, authorities can intervene. 

Local Authorities need an automated way to contain the spread of COVID-19 in their wards and cities. They are tasked with monitoring lakhs of citizens who are advised to home quarantine themselves. Our solution can help them do just that without visiting the citizens at their home. They are also alerted when there is a breach in advisory. Authorities are able to accurately establish do contact tracing in case of legitimate breaches. Our solution gives them empirical data to evaluate risk zones.

For Authorities in State Governments

• Live Dashboard for tracking all Quarantined cases

• Multiple SMS and email alerts.

• Multiple logins and custom views for different authorities

• Smartphone app for Quarantined cases

• Customized feature development on request 

• Integrated Map views like Google maps/Mapbox
• Patients total time spent at outdoors (area-wise)
• Data analytics of other affected countries for better comparative study and predictions 
• 16X7 on call support available
• Live monitoring by Intugine control tower team
• On call trainings across various locations
• Regular maintenance checks to examine if all functionalities of platform are working 

For General Public

Covid Locator App has been developed by Government of Goa to provide general public with preventive guidelines and helpline information. The app also provides a heat map of home quarantined citizens within the State of Goa. The app has the following main sections for citizens:

1. India Tracker - A real time dashboard for statistical data nation wide
2. Tracking feature to enable tracking of home quarantined citizens within the State of Goa.
3. Heat Map of home quarantined citizens within the State of Goa
4. Information of hospitals enabled to treat COVID-19
5. Government issued information for preventive care and advisories
6. Helpline numbers for emergency
7. FAQ

People in close contact with someone who is infected with the virus are at higher risk of becoming infected themselves, and of potentially further infecting others.

Closely tracking these contacts after exposure to an infected person will help the contacts to get care and treatment, and will prevent further transmission of the virus.

CovidSafe Platform will assist authorities to take Decision in the Containment of the virus by 

• Prospective numbers and trend on the future spread of the virus

• Predicting spread by detecting gathering in particular areas/sectors

• Live Heat Map of affected areas

• Cross-border/sector infection analysis and reports 
• Analysis of Covid-19 spread based on Age group, Gender, Locality, Travel History and Medical History
• Identifying patterns and reasoning for the spread of COVID-19 based upon location data details of quarantine cases
• Tracing sudden surge to particular areas/sectors
• Areas not to visit based upon high density heat map 

Currently our solution is being actively used by over 10 State Governments in India.

• Predictive analytics to estimate the number of cases for improved planning

• By controlling the rapid spread of Infection, the solution can ensure that the number of cases do not exceed beyond the bandwidth of current Medical Infrastructure 

• Live heatmap view of the nearby affected area.
• An additional interface for requesting delivery of essential goods. 
• Real-time movement of people put under quarantine.
• Alerts raised if the quarantined people breach location radius thresholds 
• Quarantined Individuals Location Heatmap
• Quarantined cases density data for allocating monitoring resources

• Contact identification: By back tracing the location history we can try to map the people in touch.

• Contact listing: All persons considered to have contact with the infected person should be listed as contacts. Efforts should be made to identify every listed contact and to inform them of their contact status, what it means, the actions that will follow, and the importance of receiving early care if they develop symptoms. Quarantine or isolation is required for high risk contacts, either at home, or in hospital. 

• Technology- LBS tracking using the cellular network of various operators. Mobile phone uses nearby cell towers to receive calls and data. LBS tracking uses nearby 3-4 cell towers to locate the phone using a triangulation algorithm. This method can work in all phones, without any app to be installed. The tracking happens through the mobile operator and not through any app.

• Coverage- Airtel, Vodafone, Idea and Jio. 

It is already live in 10 States in India.
