We aim to further converge the list of possible donors by a geographical parameter based on the location of
hospitals, using GPS tracking.
With the help of Data Analysis, we have planned to include a health prediction feature in our web-app for the
Blood donors which will promote healthy lifestyle.
In areas with lack of awareness, our app can be a gateway to educate people about having a healthy
approach to life, which will be an added advantage.
