Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of monitoring technology, specifically a WebGIS-based infectious disease monitoring system. Background Technology
[0002] Infectious disease surveillance refers to a series of measures taken to track, assess, and predict the prevalence and trends of infectious diseases in specific populations in real time, providing a basis and support for public health emergency response and management. Current methods of infectious disease surveillance are relatively traditional, primarily involving monitoring people seeking medical treatment at hospitals to obtain relevant statistics and information, and then using epidemiological methods to trace and investigate infected patients for targeted monitoring.
[0003] With the rapid development of Internet technology, WebGIS technology has also developed rapidly. WebGIS has many advantages, such as cross-platform use, no need to install software, and the ability to provide service support to other software through network access, real-time data updates, high degree of visualization and interactivity, simple operation, and easy maintenance and management.
[0004] Current monitoring of infectious diseases mainly relies on on-site collection and statistics in hospitals, which usually only detects the disease after it has already spread. Moreover, the scope of statistics is relatively limited, and patients need to be monitored at fixed locations after information is collected. When there are a large number of patients and they are scattered, fixed-location monitoring undoubtedly increases the workload and has low real-time performance. Therefore, we propose an infectious disease monitoring system based on WebGIS. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide an infectious disease monitoring system based on WebGIS to solve the problems of existing monitoring technologies, such as increased workload and low real-time performance after patient information collection and fixed-point monitoring.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution of the present invention is as follows: An infectious disease monitoring system based on WebGIS, comprising a monitoring backend with signal connection, distributed field monitoring units, and mobile terminals:
[0007] The on-site monitoring unit includes:
[0008] Camera modules are installed in the lobby of various hospitals to monitor the flow of people and the density of evacuation in the lobby, and to obtain a heat map of the hospital based on the flow of people and the density of evacuation.
[0009] The hospital positioning module is used to locate the position of each hospital, connect to the monitoring backend signal, and calculate the distance from the hospital to the monitoring backend.
[0010] The monitoring backend includes:
[0011] The display interface is used to show the login and query functions of the infectious disease monitoring system.
[0012] The authentication module is used to verify the administrator's identity by entering a username and password;
[0013] The storage module is used to store hospital location information, hospital heat map, map information, and patient information;
[0014] The data update module is used to add, modify, and delete patients' personal information, health status, and activity records;
[0015] The data query module is used by administrators to query patients' personal information, health status, activity trajectory, and case change data;
[0016] The online monitoring module connects to the patient's communication device via satellite technology to obtain the patient's geographical location in real time.
[0017] The risk analysis module performs buffer analysis based on the patient's activity trajectory to determine whether there is risk in the adjacent areas of the activity trajectory;
[0018] The measurement module is used to measure the length and area of the target area to determine the extent of the risk zone;
[0019] Mobile terminals, installed on the patient's communication device in the form of an app, include:
[0020] The personal positioning module is used to locate the patient's real-time location in order to calculate the distance between the patient and the hospital;
[0021] The personal query module allows patients to query the location information and heat map of hospitals in order to select the destination hospital;
[0022] The navigation module, through the hospital positioning module and the personal positioning module, obtains the location of the hospital and the patient, calculates the distance between the patient and the medical facility, and retrieves map information to obtain travel plans and routes.
[0023] Furthermore, the infectious disease monitoring system is designed based on the MapGIS platform.
[0024] Furthermore, the map information in the storage module uses the spatial database and localStorage provided by MapGIS to store and manage spatial and attribute data.
[0025] Furthermore, the map information uses national map data and Tianditu as the base map.
[0026] Furthermore, the data update module allows for the addition, modification, and deletion of patients as follows: clicking the data update module with the mouse adds patient information and generates a dot pen; based on listening for mouse click events, the pen moves to the patient's location range on the map, generates dynamic annotations, and pops up a popup box to add, modify, or delete patient information, thus completing the data update. The updated patient data is then displayed in visual formats such as line charts and pie charts.
[0027] Furthermore, the data query module allows users to query patient information in the following ways: by clicking the data query module and performing a drag-and-drop query, the system can dynamically add annotations to distinguish the retrieved patients; by clicking the attribute search in the data query module and entering the corresponding attribute and its value, the system can display the corresponding patient's information, health status, and activity trajectory when the mouse moves over the annotation point.
[0028] Furthermore, the risk analysis module determines the risk zone by defining the area within 500 meters of the patient's activity trajectory.
[0029] Furthermore, the measurement module determines the scope of the risk area by: tracking the mouse click position, marking points on the map and connecting them, calculating the position of each mark point and forming a closed geometric surface, and calculating the area of the closed geometric surface based on the position of the mark point.
[0030] The principles and beneficial effects of this solution:
[0031] 1. This solution builds a monitoring backend based on the MapGIS platform. By combining the existing map database with patient information, it obtains the patient's activity trajectory and then performs risk zone analysis based on the patient's activity trajectory to determine the risk range. This solution retrieves the map through the web frontend, uses the data query module to query, and then clearly and intuitively displays the patient's activity trajectory and risk zone through the display page, highlighting the spatial attributes, which facilitates timely understanding and monitoring of infection dynamics. It provides more intuitive and scientific spatial decision support for the monitoring of infectious diseases, so as to reduce the spread of infectious diseases and protect public health and safety.
[0032] 2. This solution presents patient data using line charts, pie charts, and other formats, improving data readability and enabling users to understand the trajectory of infectious diseases more intuitively and clearly.
[0033] 3. This solution connects the camera modules of each hospital to the monitoring backend to obtain the hospital's heat map. Patients can access the hospital's heat map and location information through communication devices to select the destination hospital, providing patients with the most convenient travel options and routes to facilitate their arrival at the hospital for treatment as soon as possible.

[0035] The following detailed description illustrates the specific implementation method:
[0036] The basic implementation examples are as follows: Figure 1 As shown: An infectious disease monitoring system based on WebGIS includes a monitoring backend with signal connections, distributed field monitoring units, and mobile terminals.
[0037] The on-site monitoring unit includes:
[0038] Camera modules are installed in the lobby of various hospitals to monitor the flow of people and the density of evacuation in the lobby, and to obtain a heat map of the hospital based on the flow of people and the density of evacuation.
[0039] The hospital positioning module is used to locate the position of each hospital, connect to the monitoring backend signal, and calculate the distance from the hospital to the monitoring backend.
[0040] The monitoring backend includes:
[0041] The display interface is used to show the login and query functions of the infectious disease monitoring system.
[0042] The authentication module is used to verify the administrator's identity by entering a username and password;
[0043] The storage module is used to store hospital location information, hospital heat map, map information, and patient information;
[0044] The data update module is used to add, modify, and delete patients' personal information, health status, and activity records;
[0045] The data query module is used by administrators to query patients' personal information, health status, activity trajectory, and case change data;
[0046] The online monitoring module connects to the patient's communication device via satellite technology to obtain the patient's geographical location in real time.
[0047] The risk analysis module performs buffer analysis based on the patient's activity trajectory to determine whether there is risk in the adjacent areas of the activity trajectory;
[0048] The measurement module is used to measure the length and area of the target area to determine the extent of the risk zone;
[0049] Mobile terminals, installed on the patient's communication device in the form of an app, include:
[0050] The personal positioning module is used to locate the patient's real-time location in order to calculate the distance between the patient and the hospital;
[0051] The personal query module allows patients to query the location information and heat map of hospitals in order to select the destination hospital;
[0052] The navigation module, through the hospital positioning module and the personal positioning module, obtains the location of the hospital and the patient, calculates the distance between the patient and the medical facility, and retrieves map information to obtain travel plans and routes.
[0053] The specific implementation process is as follows:
[0054] First, the camera module of the on-site monitoring unit collects the flow of people and the density of evacuation in the hospital's outpatient hall. Based on the flow of people and the density of evacuation, a heat map of the hospital is obtained. At the same time, the hospital positioning module obtains the location of the hospital and transmits it to the storage module of the monitoring backend for storage. The administrator enters the username and password through the identity verification module and logs in to the platform after successful verification.
[0055] The monitoring backend is connected to the hospital's medical record system to retrieve patient information. When it is necessary to add, modify, or delete data, the administrator clicks the data update module to add patient information and generates a dot pen. Based on listening for mouse click events, the pen moves to the patient's location range on the map, generates a dynamic label, and pops up a popup box to add, modify, or delete patient information, thus completing the data update.
[0056] Then, combining map information, the risk zone is defined within 500 meters of the patient's activity trajectory. On the risk zone map, the mouse click position is tracked, and the points are marked and connected. The position of each marked point is calculated to form a closed geometric surface. The area of the closed geometric surface is calculated based on the position of the marked point, thereby obtaining the range of the risk zone, storing it in the storage module, and sending the patient's health information to the patient's communication device to alert the patient to the risk of infection.
[0057] When an administrator wants to query data, they can click the data query module, perform a drag-and-drop query, add annotations to the retrieved patients to distinguish them, click the attribute search in the data query module, enter the corresponding attribute and attribute value, and when the mouse moves to the annotation point, the corresponding patient's information, health status and activity trajectory will pop up.
[0058] This solution builds a monitoring system based on the MapGIS platform. By combining the existing map database with patient information, it obtains the patient's activity trajectory, and then performs risk zone analysis based on the patient's activity trajectory to determine the risk range. The web front-end retrieves the map, and the data query module is used to query the data. The display page clearly and intuitively displays the patient's activity trajectory and risk zone, highlighting the spatial attributes and providing more intuitive and scientific spatial decision support for the monitoring of infectious diseases, thereby reducing the spread of infectious diseases.
[0059] After receiving a notification from the monitoring backend, the patient activates the personal location module on their communication device to obtain their location and the location information and heat map of nearby hospitals. Based on the flow of people in the hospital lobby shown on the heat map, the patient selects the destination hospital. Then, the navigation module calculates the distance between the patient and the hospital and retrieves map information to provide the patient with the most convenient travel plan and route, so that the patient can reach the hospital for treatment as soon as possible.
