DeuZikaChico: o poder da AGI no monitoramento e combate de epidemias como a de Dengue, Zika e Chikungunya
2016
With the advent of the social web, users contribute actively sharing their content instead of just navigate the Web. Such users have become truly human sensors through collaborative platforms such as the LBSNs (Location-Based Social Networks), bringing a collective intelligence for problems solving. Human sensors are in charge of producing VGI (Volunteered Geographic Information) and AGI (Ambient Geographic Information), very useful information in the most diverse application domains, such as the Smart Cities. These sensors assist on solving various problems of urban areas and contributing to the citizens’ life quality improvement. Currently, the growing number of diseases cases transmitted by the Aedes aegypti mosquito, such as Dengue, Zika and Chikungunya, has led both Brazil and other countries to an alert state. The most efficient combating method nowadays relies on the population taking preventive actions, posing a challenge to the local authorities. In this context, this paper presents the DeuZikaChico, a framework that makes use of GIS technologies, mobile platforms, crowdsourcing and social networking, with the purpose of providing public managers better monitoring of epidemics with the support from the society.
