TrackCovid- Track the Coronavirus!
(I have the iOS version ready but requires $99 to be paid to AppStore, so as soon as I acquire that money I will upload it )
Coronavirus epidemic is currently a worldwide emergency, with around 600,000 infections and more
than 25,000 deaths. Millions of Americans have already lost their jobs, and millions are in line to be
the next ones to get laid off . Society’s essential service providers like schools, markets, hospitals,
police and firefighting agencies have been deeply impacted and any hope for recovery is not yet in
sight. Not surprisingly, WHO declared this a global pandemic, and expects more than 60% of the
world’s population to get infected in due course.

Clearly, the outbreak isn’t going to subside unless we collectively act to stop this virus. A small effort
from each individual can serve as a great boon to researchers who can use these combined efforts to
battle the virus. Keeping this in mind, we have prepared a data collecting app which collects small
data from each citizen daily and aggregates them to create a large database which can be used to
uncover new patterns and insights to track the spread of the virus. The app works seamlessly and
with minimal obstructions in order to save our user’s valuable time, and the recorded data is neatly
organized so that researchers can easily access and analyze them.

The survey data consists of answers to 3 simple questions and a fourth detail being the user’s location.
These 4 inputs from a multitude of users can be used to map the extent of infection in a region.
Continuous monitoring of the data values and its changes gives us an idea as to which direction the
virus is spreading, and this inference can be used to erect effective barriers in that direction.

This app makes use of Firebase for authentication, cloud messaging and realtime database. The
general functionality of the app is performed using Unity3d and a third party UI service called
TextMeshPro.
