Health and Wellbeing

The domain of health and wellbeing is perhaps the one that most certainly affects everyone. LI benefits the health and wellbeing sector by providing tools to e.g., study the response times for emergency response units, plan for better service coverage, better allocation of resources, monitor disease outbreaks etc. The aging population within the EU in combination with e.g., climate change and potential future epidemics pose challenges that can be mitigated with the use of location information. 

On this page you can find services that LIH partners are providing for Health and Wellbeing industries and public organizations.
