Project Motivation

Currently, there is a need to upgrade the living conditions in various parts of Myanmar. However, it is difficult to identify the locations of the areas that are in need of basic infrastructure, in terms of transportation, environment conditions and info communications sectors as well as human development and health care sectors. The lack of visibility in deciding which area needs more assistance is the prime motivating factor for our team to take up on the project. Through our application, we hope to seek attention from international organizations to provide assistance for those identified areas in any possible means.

Project Objectives

Through our project, we aim to :
• Identify the areas with infrastructure and development needs
• Analyze and highlight the regions with infrastructure and development needs
• Allow discernibility of distribution map based on dynamic input parameters
• Project the ideas and insights derived to the department of rural and urban development for further execution

Project Prototype

Users interested in improving the infrastructure or other related social causes in Myanmar will be able to use our application to help them get a better understanding of which regions require need of help. All they simply have to do is select the sector that they are interested in helping, as well as which indicator(area of interest) and press the submit button. The map will refresh and display results and the user will be able to see the spread of values over different regions throughout the whole of Myanmar based on the filters selected. The user may then hover over any region and the name of the region as well as the values associated to it will appear. Below is a simple sketch/draft of how we envision the UI to be if the user selects 'Environment' as their sector and '% of Households with Safe Sanitation' as their area of interest:

Below is the list of sectors and area of interests that a user may select:

From the previous map, the user will know which regions are in need of more help. A third filter, region, is available to let users see the spread of values among townships in a region the user has selected.

The following is a UI sketch if the user selects the Kayah region:

The following are regions of Myanmar the user can select from:
