COVID-19 Real-time Crisis Management Platform Coordinates Data-Driven Emergency Response
Summary
SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Kinetica and Disaster Tech announced the release of the COVID-19 Real-time Crisis Management Platform to aggregate and track data relevant to COVID-19 emergency response today. The platform is able to combine current data, such as hospital capacity and diversion status, locations of alternative medical sites, state-wide declarations, testing kit quantities, and protective equipment availability at a local level, for example. “ Because tackling a global pandemic is such a complex task, it is essential to combine data from many sources to get the most up-to-date, relevant information to help disparate groups of people work together across geographies,” said Stephan Mergenthaler, Head of Strategic Intelligence at the World Economic Forum. The Kinetica Active Analytics Platform gives Disaster Tech the ability to support tens of thousands of users so that entire emergency response teams have simultaneous access to up-to-the-moment information. Organizations across automotive, energy, telecommunications, retail, healthcare, financial services, and beyond leverage the platform’s GPU-accelerated computing power to build custom analytical applications that deliver immediate, dynamic insight.
