Abstract
A system to quickly estimate the spread of infectious diseases is needed due to the fear and threat of infectious disease spread all around the world. It is necessary to simulate the disease spread estimation model that is specific to each region and environment of each country. Korea needs environmentally optimized disease spread simulation technology. The combination of real-world data on population and human mobility and disease spread models is a global trend to enhance predictive power. Utilization of Big Data makes it possible to improve the reality of infectious disease spread model. Government of Korea Activating the opening and sharing of public information and we have environment in which a variety of evidence can be obtained to increase the reliability of disease spread estimation.
