Our algorithm designed to save lives efficiently in critical situations. By harnessing the power of data including the current Automated External Defibrillator (AED) locations, and records of cardiac arrest events, we have developed a solution to determine the optimal placement of AEDs.
Colors:
* Green-AED current location
* Blue-AED optimal location
Size:
The size of each circle indicates the amount of proportion within each color group.
* AED optimal locations: The reallocation of AEDs add more AEDs to the area near to Antwerp and distributes them separately. It also adds a small amount of AEDs to Brussels. The number of AEDs around Liege has negligible change.
* Insights: The allocation pattern of AEDs in Antwerp can be reconfigured.
The data is from a "Citizen Science" project: From bystander to hero provided by teaching teams in KU Leuven.
