 About Big Data
Big data are complex data sets that
traditional data processing systems
cannot efficiently and economically
store, manage, or process. Compared to
traditional data, big data has five “V”
characteristics: volume, variety, velocity,
veracity, and value. In the digital
economy era, data are a fundamental
strategic resource for countries,
enhancing the government’s social
governance capacity and public service
levels. Big data technology supports a
wide range of health care functions,
including clinical decision support,
population health management, and
disease monitoring.
 Background
In the prevention and control of
infectious diseases, all research on the
application of big data technology has
mainly focused on the application of big
data technology for COVID-19 warning
and monitoring, prevention of the
disease’s rapid spread and reduction of
its impact on society are currently the
most pressing challenges for the
application of big data technology
during the COVID-19 pandemic. After
the outbreak of COVID-19 in Wuhan, the
all government and nongovernmental
organizations actively used big data
technology to prevent, contain, and
control the spread of COVID-19.
 Introduction
India has used big data technology to

prevent and control COVID-19 in a

timely manner. To prevent and control

infectious diseases, countries must

collect, clean, and integrate data from

a wide range of sources; use big data

technology to analyze a wide range of

big data; create platforms for data

analyses and sharing; and address

privacy issues in the collection and use

of big data.
 How big data help in prevention

In the process of the prevention and

control of COVID-19 in China, big data
technology has played an important role
in personal tracking, surveillance and early
warning, tracking of the virus’s sources,
drug screening, medical treatment,
resource allocation, and production
recovery. The data used included location
and travel data, medical and health data,
news media data, government data, online
consumption data, data collected by
intelligent equipment, and epidemic
prevention data.
 Methods

We will discuss the data collection methods and key

data information that existed in India before the
outbreak of COVID-19 and how these data contributed
to the prevention and control of COVID-19. Next, we
discuss India’s new data collection methods and new
information assembled after the outbreak of COVID-19.
Based on the data and information collected in India,
we will analyze the application of big data technology
from the perspectives of data sources, data
application logic, data application level, and
application results. In addition, we will analyze the
issues, challenges, and responses encountered by
China in the application of big data technology

Conclusion power to contain, suppress, and control COVID-19, with the

Indian government and non-governmental organizations
making full use of big data information from major medical
institutions, telecommunications providers, Internet
companies, departments government. , commercial companies,
and AI equipment. By analyzing the large data technology to
prevent and control COVID-19, we found that high data
technology played an important role in epidemic monitoring
and early warning, virus monitoring and personal monitoring,
community health intervention planning, drug testing and
medical monitoring. treatment, strengthening community and
regional responses to epidemics, and directing social and
economic resilience in the post-epidemic period
We also saw gaps in the use of big data technology to prevent
and control COVID-19, including problems with data acquisition,
data usage, data distribution, and data protection. The use of
big data technology in the prevention and control of
communicable diseases such as COVID-19 requires further
advancement in the collection, analysis, dissemination, and
confidentiality of personal and public information.
