The research groups Geotec, 2D and 3D Shape Analysis-Statistical Learning in Artificial Intelligence, Stereology and GIANT of the Universitat Jaume I participate together with other ten groups of six entities of the Valencian Community in the project  "Ciencia de Datos contra la COVID-19" [Data Sciences against COVID-19] (CD4COVID), a collaborative work that is being developed in a voluntary and altruistic way since the beginning of the crisis caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.

The CD4COVID project has recently obtained funding from the Supera COVID-19 fund that Banco Santander launched in April, together with CRUE Spanish Universities and the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC). The 8.5 million fund aims to finance programmes, projects and support measures to minimise the impact of the crisis generated by the pandemic and focuses on three lines of action: research, social impact projects and strengthening the technological capacity of Spanish universities.

The project "Ciencia de Datos contra la COVID-19" brings together the participation of civil society (through a citizen survey), experts from the academic and research sphere and public administration, with the objective of providing information so that those responsible for public management of the crisis can make informed decisions based on scientific evidence obtained from data analysis.

This initiative gathers more than twenty experts from universities and research centres in the Valencian Community and a Microsoft researcher who uses the resources of their own institutions. The project includes three main areas of work: modelling of human mobility; computational epidemiological models and data sciences for public decision-making. It has been underway since the start of the crisis in March and is expected to be operational until early 2021, when everything suggests that a vaccine will be available and there will be less need to continue monitoring the pandemic.

The decrease in the daily distance travelled in the Comunitat Valenciana is between 52% and 59%, compared to the national average of 51%, according to the Generalitat's mobile phone study.
