AIforGoodSimulator - Modeling Covid-19 Spread and Potential Interventions in Refugee Camps (1.0.0)
The Netlogo model is a conceptualization of the Moria refugee camp, capturing the household demographics of refugees in the camp, a theoretical friendship network based on values, and an abstraction of their daily activities. The model then simulates how Covid-19 could spread through the camp if one refugee is exposed to the virus, utilizing transmission probabilities and the stages of disease progression of Covid-19 from susceptible to exposed to asymptomatic / symptomatic to mild / severe to recovered from literature. The model also incorporates various interventions - PPE, lockdown, isolation of symptomatic refugees - to analyze how they could mitigate the spread of the virus through the camp.
Release Notes
The required GIS files to run the model can be downloaded from https://github.com/AIforGoodSimulator/agentbased-model-Netlogo/blob/master/gismoria.zip
