In the fight against the epidemic caused by novel Coronavirus pneumonia (COVID-19) in China, governments, institutions, scientific research institutes, and tech companies have all responded quickly and adopted big data and other smart technologies in epidemic monitoring and analysis, personnel management, medical treatment, resumption of work and production, and other aspects, which have played a significant role in supporting the epidemic prevention and control (EPC) work.In order to present a panoramic view of the applications of big data and AI for EPC, Cloud Computing and Big Data Research lnstitute, CAICT, as a lead institution, in collaboration with many other partners, collected and analyzed more than 200 cases, sorted out how different sectors adopted big data and data intelligence technologies for EPC, analyzed the key links of data-driven EPC, discussed the problems and challenges in this regard, and conducted preliminary discussions on using next-generation technologies such as big data for the next-step EPC work.
