CoronaSurveys

13 April 2022

CoronaSurveys project (led by Antonio Fernández Anta, Research Professor at IMDEA Networks) is a collaborative endeavor between several universities, research institutions and independent volunteers. Data about the COVID-19 pandemic has been collected since March 2020 via anonymous open surveys (all the data collected is openly available). This data allows the production of estimates on the incidence and evolution of COVID-19 using the Network Scale-up Method.

– The CoronaSurveys team was among the 5 finalists of the COVID-19 Symptom Data Challenge (https://www.symptomchallenge.org/). It was awarded 5,000 US dollars.

– The CoronaSurveys team was among the 10 finalists of the XPRIZE Pandemic Response Challenge (https://www.xprize.org/challenge/pandemicresponse). It was awarded 3,000 US dollars in AWS credits for cloud and compute services.
