Mapping the Corona virus pandemic in Africa in real time is quite innovative.

In terms of gender, beyond sex disaggregation of infections,  such tools can be adapted to reveal real time data on some of the gendered outcomes of the pandemic especially in relation to health. For example number of  Gender based Violence cases accessing care or  Sexual Reproductive Health Services . These have been impacted greatly during the pandemic. See a Mapping of online studies that show  gendered effects of the pandemic  across the world from UNESCO https://en.unesco.org/news/mapping-online-articles-covid-19-and-gender.
