Planet, With People

Your challenge is to build on the Human Planet Initiative of the Group on Earth Observations to apply new methods for mapping attributes of human populations. How can Human Planet data from NASA and other sources be used to improve or update maps or other information important to a problem that concerns you? Design or create a tool or service to accomplish this.

O-pital

Summary

We have tried to come up with a solution that would avoid such scenarios where the hospitals get crowded during an emergency situation which affects the flow of further proceedings which in turn leads to huge number of deaths. Thinking a lot about it we came up with a solution which would prevent crowding scenarios in hospital from happening in the first place. So for this we proposed the solution in the form of API which could be integrated on various platforms e:g Google Maps. In this solution, our main focus is to optimize the hospital allotments to the patients in the least possible time and manage the flow of further proceedings.

How We Addressed This Challenge

The solution to the proposed problem would be presented in the form of API which could be integrated on various platforms e:g Google Maps. In this solution, our main focus is to optimize the hospital allotments to the patients in the least possible time and manage the flow of further proceedings. This can be done by creating a database of existing hospitals with the current number of patients in them and extracting the resources and doctors of a particular hospital in an area in order to provide the user with the most reasonable hospital that would be suitable for them and there would be no waste of time in searching for a proper hospital for the patient during the emergency situation.

Our aim would be to make this solution more real-time based and fault-tolerant

How We Developed This Project

Motivation

we have tried to cover the most basic need of people during any catastrophic or pandemic situation reason being that Hospitals are the first place that become crowded during the an emergency situation and this situation leads to inconsistency in the flow of proceedings of the patients which in turn causes millions of deaths in India only.

Philosphy

The idea is to use the existing data in the hospitals regarding their location from the required patient, no of beds available, no of ambulance available etc. and use these information to provide the location of the most reasonable hospital to the patient. This location can be redirected to the google maps api and google maps can provide the reasonable route to the patient.

How We Used Space Agency Data in This Project

We did not use any data from NASA intead we used local data in order to address the local needs first. But the this is a global problem which could be solved through this solution.

Project Demo

The solution to the proposed problem would be presented in the form of API which could be integrated on various platforms e:g Google Maps. In this solution, our main focus is to optimize the hospital allotments to the patients in the least possible time and manage the flow of further proceedings. This can be done by creating a database of existing hospitals with the current number of patients in them and extracting the free slots, resources and doctors of a particular hospital in an area in order to provide the user with the most reasonable hospital that would be suitable for them and there would be no waste of time in searching for a proper hospital for the patient during the emergency situation. All the required data would be collected andthe user request would pass through our API which would provide them with the reasonable hospital and after registration of a patient in a particular hospital the hospital database would be updated which in turn would update the current decision of the proposed API in order to provide an optimal solution
