Summary:
|
This Recommendation specifies the framework of smart public health management in Smart and Sustainable Cities (SSC).
SSCs are capable of fostering data driven smart applications to manage limited resources and implement them to thwart the advent of future pandemics of the same magnitude. Linking SSC with public health frameworks to manage future pandemics/epidemics to the attainment of the SDGs (3: Global Heath, 1: Poverty Eradication and 11: Make cities inclusive, safe, resilient, and sustainable, and the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction) is a challenge and serves a dual purpose. With the utilization of appropriate emergency communication and public health frameworks, it will become easier to develop models to predict the spread of diseases, ascertain the source of illnesses, coordinate lockdowns, detect and report symptoms, identify viral strains and provide remote assistance as required with limited human interaction, through an IoT-based infrastructure.
This Recommendation is based on the U4SSC report entitled “Smart public health emergency management and ICT implementations” and its structure is as follows: it starts with an analysis of the public health context and of corresponding frameworks, and returns a generic public health framework, which specifies the pandemic’s lifecycle. The following section interconnects this generic framework with the SSC and with city resilience. Then, it depicts with UML diagrams how this framework can be executed within the SSC environment and highlights the SSC components that play role in this execution.
