Tech Company Keeps Tabs on How People Socially Isolate Across the Country

April 1, 2020 by Staff

(Fox News) A tech company is monitoring smartphone data and grading American counties on a “Social Distancing Scoreboard” as authorities across the United States urge residents to socially isolate and slow the spread of the coronavirus.

Unacast, which describes itself as “an award-winning location data and analytics firm,” said in a post on its website that the data is collected from “tens of millions” of mobile phones. It released the scoreboard last week.

The interactive, color-coded chart is broken down by state and by county. It’s updated daily with a comparison in each location of how much distance people are traveling now and how much they did before the COVID-19 outbreak.
