COVID Suraksha v1.2.1
COVID Suraksha is a suite comprising an Android mobile application
and a web-based application portal, developed by NIC Assam, for ensuring that
Home Quarantine cases are being properly monitored by the assigned surveillance
teams of health workers and also to ensure the Citizen with 14 days of home
quarantine advice stays in their home only. COVID Suraksha provides regular
real-time online feedback on the performance of the Surveillance Teams, to the
District Administration. The App is equipped with QR code scanner, location
update and geofencing.
A unique QR Code is assigned to each of the Home Quarantined
person and pasted on their room/home. Health worker will visit the home of the
Quarantine and scan the QR code after a medical check-up. To ensure that the
health workers are scanning the QR code from home of the quarantine person
only, the current device location while scanning is obtained and sent to the
server. The Concerned Officials of the District Administration can now view
visit status of the health workers in a web dashboard and ensure that each home
quarantined persons got medical check-up.
In this version, the QR code assigned is available in the Home
Quarantined person’s user login. So, pasting of QR code will only be required
in cases where the person don’t own any Android phone.
Geofencing is the newly added feature which will help to send
alert to the concerned authority if the home quarantine person leaves the
circle of radius 150m from his/her home. But for this feature to be working,
location feature of the device need to be always ON and the user need to carry
their device with them only. Another feature of sending regular selfie photo
update is added in this version of the app. This will help to send timely photo
update to the District Administration. The other information like location
coordinates of the photo taken, timestamp etc are also sent to the server. A
notification feature is also added to remind the user to send their selfie timely
during day hours.
