About

All Rhode Islanders have the right to live a healthy and happy life. We all need resources to help us and our families thrive at home, work, or school. But we don't all get these same opportunities because of where we live. This means that some communities are affected by COVID-19 more than others.

At Project SIGNAL, we use data to show how COVID-19 has impacted the hardest-hit neighborhoods. We make this data available to support policies that protect the most vulnerable Rhode Islanders.

Technical Details

This is a web-based project built on the Vue Framework, a progressive javascript framework. It is hosted on Firebase, Google's mobile and web app development platform. It uses Firestore, a flexible and scalable NoSQL cloud database build on Google Cloud infrastructure, to store and sync data.

We use Mapbox, customizable maps, along side Vega, a visualization grammar, to visualize data on our dashboard maps.
