The overall goal of the MOBVEC project is to create a technology that will be the first line of defense against disease vectors, help prevent and combat devastating disease outbreaks, and save lives and millions of euros in healthcare and lost work hours.<\/p>\n

MOBVEC will be the first VBD Mobile Bio-Lab in the world, offering a global service:<\/p>\n

– Automatic information on vector populations and their environment, obtained in real time through smart traps, powered by machine learning and cutting-edge computing: insect species, sex, age and viral infection.<\/p>\n

– GEOSS-compliant adult insect vector risk maps and eggs\/larvae, built in the field + Copernicus data<\/p>\n

– GEOSS-compatible disease transmission models in mosquito populations, merging data provided by a) Copernicus, b) clinical and diagnostic data from reference laboratories, and c) vector risk maps<\/p>\n

– GEOSS-compatible citizen science platform to strengthen mosquito surveillance using citizens as observation nodes, whose data is automatically calibrated using data from smart traps.<\/p>\n

– Mobile BD biolaboratory with capacity for points 1, 2 and 3 + BDV epidemiological maps, prognostic models and molecular analysis of arboviruses, which will be quickly operational in the heart of BDV outbreaks to support emergency personnel.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
