Abstract

This study developed a system that can collect, manage, and utilize the travel routes of individuals who tested positive for coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) based on the data standardization and quality management principles and presented the analysis data collected from the existing system. Unlike many other countries in the world, Korea demonstrated a rapid response by conducting epidemiological investigations. Further, the local governments have actively shared the travel routes of individuals who tested positive for COVID-19 to facilitate proactive prevention of the infectious disease per the Infectious Disease Control and Prevention Law. However, currently, there is no standard protocol for the local governments to share the information, thus complicating the process of sharing, managing, and utilizing the collected data. Therefore, this study developed a system that can facilitate sharing of the travel routes of individuals who tested positive for COVID-19 by establishing database construction procedures and using the travel route of COVID-19 patients as per the Disaster & Safety Information Sharing Platform and developing a data processing guideline, a data entry system with default templates, and Open API. Although this sharing system was designed to communicate the travel routes of COVID-19 patients, it can also be utilized in case of other infectious diseases. Therefore, it can be used as a response strategy for future outbreaks of infectious diseases.

본 논문에서는 COVID-19 확진자의 이동경로 정보를 데이터 표준화 및 품질관리 기반으로 구축 및 관리하고 활용 할 수 있는 체계 개발을 위한 연구 수행 내용과 실제 시스템을 통해 구축한 데이터에 대한 분석 결과를 제시하였다. 해외 국가들과는 달리 우리나라는 적극적인 감염병 방역을 위해 감염병 예방법을 근거로 확진환자에 대한 빠른 역학조사와 함께 확진자의 이동경로 정보를 지방자치단체별로 적극 공개하고 있다. 하지만 국내 지자체별 제공 정보의 비표준화로 정보의 통합적인 관리와 공유 및 활용이 쉽지 않은 상황이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 COVID-19 확진자 이동경로 DB 구축 및 제공 절차를 재난안전정보 공유 플랫폼을 기반으로 정립하고 데이터 가공 지침, 표준 항목이 적용된 데이터 입력시스템, 데이터 제공 오픈 API 서비스 개발을 통해 COVID19 확진자 이동경로 정보 공유 체계를 구축하였다. 플랫폼 기반의 COVID-19 확진자 이동경로 정보 공유 체계는 다른 감염병 사례에도 적용 가능하므로 지속적으로 발생하는 감염병 재난 대응 및 예방에 활용 및 보탬이 되길 기대한다.
