Introduction

During the 2010 Haiti earthquake, researchers utilized anonymized mobile phone data to track population movements. This information was crucial in understanding the spread of cholera and coordinating effective humanitarian responses. By analyzing call patterns, researchers could estimate the movement of people both in response to the earthquake and during the related cholera outbreak, enabling rapid and accurate interventions.
