Lesson 7 Technology in Our Lives
Disease Forecast
Did you know that health professionals can now forecast a disease just as weather experts forecast the weather?
This is possible thanks to big data.
For example, when the flu season comes, people will buy more flu medicine.
They will also search online about flu symptoms more.
If this kind of data is analyzed wisely, the spread of the flu can be predicted.
Improving Performance in Sports
Are you a sports fan?
Well, big data is improving the performance of players, making sports more exciting.
A famous example is Germany’s national soccer team.
The team built a database by collecting and analyzing a huge amount of data on players.
For example, the data included information about how much each player ran and how long he had the ball.
With the help of this database, Germany’s national soccer team was able to improve its performance and win the 2014 World Cup.
Crime Prevention
Thanks to big data, police can now predict crime before it happens.
Through the analysis of big data about the type, time and place of crime, police can make a map of crime hot spots.
This map identifies when and where crime is most likely to happen.
Police can prevent further crime by focusing on the areas and the times this map predicts.
Big data has already changed the world greatly.
So where will the big data industry go from here?
Nobody knows for sure, but experts agree that big data will play a more and more important role in our lives.
