"Ma3ak" with you to fight COVID-19

Inspiration

Egypt need to flatten the curve. we cannot stop our lives for a disease. The consequences would be worse than catching the virus. worst scenario may include country economic collapse.

Taken into consideration the special circumstances for our country country population 100M people literacy for the size of the crisis we’re facing we can never rely on the citizen awareness to stop the spread of this pandemic

What it does

it uses positionning services for here company and the MOH data to track the suspected patients and medical staff, in order to give alarm for action for the MOH operations room to expect a Spike for COVID-19 in that areas , and disinfect them to prevent it. Also, it's useful system for tracking the historical data for the confirmed patients, in order to be accurate for the trace followup, as some poeple wont be able to remember the places they've visted and the people they're met around, but the BTS of the mobile network, and the Positionning servers for Here technologies can remember uptil 30 days historical data.

How I built it

I rely on the positionning service for Here Maps, ad process these tracking data using Mathworks software, as they've got suscess story with Databricks and Kafka.

Since 2017 my passion for learning a new technology (non-vendor biased) has begun. First, i started to study SDN/NFV relying on my knowledge of VMWARE & data networks. Then, I have been assigned new tasks related to report generation and cost equations in cooperation with finance team in the connectivity business unit which made me realize that data analytics is my next passion.
Accordingly, since 2018 I began to learn more about OLAP and business intelligence techniques but this made me feel more interested to learn in an academic way. I have received multiple acceptance letters for recognized universities, like: university of Exeter (UK), university of Leiden (NL) and university of Twente(NL). Unfortunately, I could not get a scholarship to fund my studies in Europe.
But I didn’t give up and began to study online courses at COURSERA :( IBM data science specialization-9 courses track-, Johns Hopkins data science specialization-9 courses tracks-).also, began to learn MS POWER BI by attending a course.
Starting 2020, I’ve enrolled into the Million Arab Programmers Scholarship, after reviewing the Data Engineer Nano-degree contents, and found it would be an added value in my DS learning path.
In parallel, 2018-2019, I’ve began to work in the field of Data Intelligence products as a freelance with company named https://3adda.com specialized for BI SaaS serving the Insurance Industry. I’ve been responsible on the Sales and marketing department. Where I’ve studied the market competitors, and benchmarked the company products. And enhanced the customer relationship, raised the customer satisfaction.
During this period I’ve acquired new accounts, in the targeted market. And redesigned the company portfolio to match the new allies/partners, which I’ve studied and built the relationship to enhance the products development.
Another reason made me interested to get more into the Data Science is the medical use-case. I’ve faced an issue related to Drug-Drug-Interaction with my parents. And during my work with 3adda, we’ve been working with the product development team to solve this problem using a ML based SaaS for Medical insurance company.
Finally, I’m interested to use this knowledge and eagerness to learn to acquire experience in this field.
