Introduction
Our generation is facing one of the most difficult challenges of its time with consequences that will unravel for a long time, in all aspects of our existence. With much of our world in lockdown, our attention turns towards the spread and evolution of the SARS-CoV-2 virus around the globe. Given the geospatial dimension of the threat, some of the OSGeo community members might be using their knowledge and experience to design and implement various applications to track, visualise or predict the COVID-19 pandemic evolution.
This wiki page is dedicated to collect COVID-19 related initiatives developed using FOSS solutions. We invite anyone involved in such an initiative or has knowledge of one, to acknowledge their efforts by including it in this list.
COVID-19 FOSS initiatives
Romania, geo-spatial.org (Romanian OSGeo Local Chapter)
As soon as Romania registered its first official COVID-19 patient on February 26, the geo-spatial.org volunteers have collaboratively begun to work on an application based on the Romanian official data to disseminate to the public the evolution of the pandemic. The application presents visualizations related to the dimensions of the outbreak in Romania - confirmed cases, recovered and deaths - together with a series of statistics, as well as other relevant aspects covering quarantine and applied restrictions, hospital infrastructure, marginalised communities, border traffic. Due to the un-structured and often modified manner in which the Romanian authorities are sharing COVID-19 information, a significant part of the team's efforts are invested into collecting more detailed information from the local and national media, match it to the official reporting, structure and deliver it in a more relevant manner. The collected, cleaned data can be accessed as JSON format using a dedicate API (the API is momentarily static, nevertheless, we will analyse the possibility of filter set-ups for future releases):
- https://covid19.geo-spatial.org/api/dashboard/getCasesByCounty
- https://covid19.geo-spatial.org/api/dashboard/getDeadCasesByCounty
- https://covid19.geo-spatial.org/api/dashboard/getHealthCasesByCounty
- https://covid19.geo-spatial.org/api/dashboard/getDailyCaseReport
- https://covid19.geo-spatial.org/api/statistics/getCaseRelation
- https://covid19.geo-spatial.org/api/dashboard/getPercentageByGender
- https://covid19.geo-spatial.org/api/dashboard/getCasesByAgeGroup
- https://covid19.geo-spatial.org/api/dashboard/getDailyCases
FOSS employed
The application is build using Node.js, PostgreSQL+PostGIS, R on the backend side, OpenLayers, Angular, charts.js, Plotly and D3.js for the frontend side and it is available under un MIT license on Github.
The infrastructure is supported by SAGE group from University of West Timișoara and CARTO, through their grant program.
U. S. Spread of COVID-19 Map and Analytics
In support of nationwide public service efforts to help individuals and organizations understand the rapidly expanding nature of the COVID-19 virus crisis in the U.S., SharedGeo.org created a series of maps and related analytics which includes a by-county time-lapse view of the spread.

BNHR
The COVID-19 Status Tracking, Overview, and Mapping Project (#STOMPCOVIDPH) is a platform utilizing free and open technologies to provide open, granular, and up-to-date COVID-19 data, statistics, maps, visualizations, and analyses of the Philippine situation. It shows case information and statistics, maps and visualizations, and allows for data to be downloaded so it can be used by others for their own purposes.
To learn more, visit the #STOMPCOVID website.
FOSS employed
The platform uses CARTO for the backend through their grant program. Mapbox, Charts.JS, and other JavaScript libraries are used for the frontend.
