VULNERABLE COMMUNITIES MAPPING
With Orbital Insight, governments can monitor current and historical foot traffic at specific sites to quantify the impact of social distancing initiatives, capacity at healthcare and key infrastructure, and activity in commercial districts.
PROTECTING HEALTHCARE WORKERS AND RESIDENTS
Some in-person meetings are necessary to fight the spread of COVID and treat those with illness. Whyline is a virtual queueing solution for any essential services, including new COVID-19 testing sites and hospitals, where you can include in-app screening, use AI to help control foot traffic, and avoid over-congestion and unnecessary onsite waiting.
