London, UK -- (SBWIRE) -- 10/05/2021 -- The British Army had a big role to play in the handling of the COVID-19 pandemic. However, not all of its achievements were as visible as building hospitals and managing testing stations. One regiment of the army also designed a groundbreaking data platform that turned out to be crucial to the way that the country was able to handle its response to the pandemic. 42 Engineer Regiment designed a geospatial intelligence system that could draw together data from the NHS and its partners to facilitate analysis for real time decision making. This is the first time that a military innovation has been used in a civilian crisis and shows just how innovative and tech-driven the army is today. The innovation behind the system comes from it being the first platform capable of integrating COVID incidence data with information drawn directly from the NHS on key statistics such as bed capacity and available personnel numbers. It played a crucial role in creating a real time picture of the country during the pandemic.
