To better understand both the Trident topologies, as well as using Storm with sensor data, we will implement a Trident topology that collects medical reports to identify the outbreak of a disease.
The topology will process diagnosis events that contain the following pieces of information:
|
Latitude |
Longitude |
Timestamp |
Diagnosis Code (ICD9-CM) |
|---|---|---|---|
|
39.9522 |
-75.1642 |
03/13/2013 at 3:30 PM |
320.0 (Hemophilus meningitis) |
|
40.3588 |
-75.6269 |
03/13/2013 at 3:50 PM |
324.0 (Intracranial abscess) |
Each event will include the Global Positioning System (GPS) coordinates of the occurrence. The latitude and longitude are specified in the decimal format. The event also contains the ICD9-CM code, which indicates the diagnosis and a timestamp for the event. A complete list of ICD-9-CM codes are available at:
To detect an outbreak, the system will count the occurrences of specific disease codes within a geographic location over a specified period of time. To...
