About the Project

DATA4COVID

The project was initiated to enhance the management and analysis of data related to the COVID-19 pandemic. Recognizing the critical need for comprehensive data integration during health crises, the project aimed to develop a platform capable of aggregating and processing multisectoral information. This platform was designed to assist relevant entities in designing, implementing, and monitoring coordinated measures to combat the pandemic.

A key objective of DATA4COVID was to provide real-time indicators of implemented measures, focusing on risk management and impact assessment across different phases of the pandemic. By leveraging advanced data analytics and integration techniques, the project sought to improve decision-making processes and facilitate the development of effective public health policies.

Partnership

This consortium brought together a diverse range of expertise from leading Portuguese institutions to address the challenges of data management and analysis during the COVID-19 pandemic.

The DATA4COVID project was coordinated by Associação Porto Digital (Portugal) and included the following partners: Universidade do Porto (Portugal), NOVA IMS (Portugal), NOS Comunicações (Portugal) and TekPrivacy (Portugal).
