ABSTRACT
In this paper, we present CoviIS, an emergency Covid Information System that utilizes digital media to provide helpful information in uncertain times of the Covid pandemic. Since people require different types of information during times of crisis, the findings obtained from this work integrate various pieces of information into a form of coherency, thereby aiding people during an emergency and reducing further damage. The study brings together real-time Covid informatics employing multiple methods such as general search, social media search, and geographical analysis. To assist people in this emergency, we also conduct a comprehensive analysis of news articles and social media activities to provide an economically feasible solution. CoviIS helps locate the nearest hospitals and Covid isolation centers for seeking medical attention during an emergency. CoviIS also provides emergency information through news articles and social media posts, thereby serving as an important Covid emergency tool. © 2023, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd.
