Social networks, along with the negative sides and certainly have their advantages. Researchers have discovered that social networks like Facebook and Twitter can help them to receive data and information relevant to users. This information can then be used for the good of public safety. Michiko statistician Wolcott and his colleagues use social networks as an important source of information, especially when it comes to emergency situations.
According to Wolcott, social media play an important role in disseminating information and collecting data in real time during natural disasters. Considering the adoption of these social networks in every corner of the world, we know that traffic information that circulates through them is pretty big. Not in vain, social networks have become part of various campaigns to assess the damage of natural tragedies.
In a similar way to Wolcott, bio-statistician Elaine Noesie used a method for tracking food diseases using published pictures of foods that have become a recent trend. This traditional surveillance system failed to evaluate some of the most widespread diseases in the country coming as a result of malnutrition. Without social networks, we will achieve to receive such results. From all this we find that social networks are not the only means of communication, but can use very well and as a 'deposit' for data collection.
