About

Bypass is a big data application focusing on safety. We are showcasing our learning through a mobile application mitigating the public’s exposure to dangerous areas by taking them around high crime risk streets.

Bypass leverages machine learning, crunching thousands of dynamic data sets, to continually learn from crime reports, seasonal data and the user’s feedback to track how crime areas evolve and to ensure people are being routed the fastest way around real threat areas.

Bypass operates at a street level granularity not only at a neighborhood level. Bypass takes you the relatively safest route whether you are in a historically dangerous or safe area.

Bypass not only provides a routing feature. Bypass visualizes data to show a heat maps of crime, raw crime data, points of interest (eg shopping centers, hospitals, police stations etc), where public street lamps are as well as the free wifi zones.

Bypass is keeping users proactively safe rather than reacting to crime.
