I decided to share an idea that I published in my LiveJournal almost 2 years ago. But nobody reads my LJ, so we can assume that I am publishing for the first time.
What it is: Program for GPS navigators, other devices with GPS navigation, service.
Title: Preventable Death ... or Guardian Angel ... or Smertometer ...
The bottom line:Based on data about the current location of a person, time of day, speed of movement, weather, the program should predict the probability of death in a given place under these conditions. Because the incoming data is constantly changing, the graph can also be drawn for clarity. You can also add warnings about critical levels of danger, as well as notifying parents if the child has a critical level.
The most vivid applications:1. If you accelerate to 200km / h on the highway, then let the program warn you about the critical level of danger of dying.
2. If you are brought to a hot spot, then of course the level of danger will be higher.
3. And it's just fun to see how the probability of death depends on the time of day, especially when you walk at night in the area of ​​Bitsevsky Forest Park
Implementation:The program itself is very simple. All she needs is to get the coordinates, calculate the speed of movement, get information about the weather, add to it the current time of day, make a request and display the result.
It is much more difficult to cover even a map of Moscow with data on the deaths of people sorted by time of day, reasons, time of year, as well as information about the number of people in general in this territory. Make such a base - and everything will be elementary.
For example, the query:Such a street, 3 o'clock at night, the speed of 5 km / h, the movement is not on the roadway, the air temperature is -30. We find out how much under such conditions has died over the last year in general, in this area in particular, how many people can hang out in this area. Calculate the probability - and everything!

To whom the entertainment, and who can save life. Without interaction with government agencies, this will not work out - you need a lot of statistical data that is not freely available. But state bodies may also have an interest - the effect of the service on accident statistics is worth studying.
