Data science for the most vulnerable at UNICEF
summary
UNICEF partners with a government and a telco to compute aggregated mobile CDRs that reveal movement flows during the 2014 Ebola crisis, showing that people from CAFO Boulogne take the south route to the capital and guiding placement of temperature checks and information campaigns. Analysis redefines service areas as mobility-defined service areas instead of districts, uses roughly 1% aggregated samples to map travel links, and notes that preestablished partnerships are required because ad hoc setups arrive too late.
