就最近新型冠狀病毒(武漢肺炎)疫情引起社會各界關注，智慧城市聯盟兩位創辦人兼榮譽會長葛珮帆議員和鄧淑明博士，及會長楊文銳先生近日積極推動政府推出疫情互動地圖儀表板，向公眾提供武漢肺炎情況的資訊。

這個公私營機構合作開發的疫情互動地圖儀表板，由發展局和地政總署統籌，智慧城市聯盟IT義工團隊提供協助，滙集多個政府部門包括衛生署及醫管局有關武漢肺炎的資訊，相信這可向公眾提供最新及正確信息，防止假消息不斷散播令市民恐慌。

In view of the current novel coronavirus infection (Wuhan Pneumonia) pandemic the two Founders and Honorary Presidents of Smart City Consortium (SCC), Hon Elizabeth Quat and Dr Winnie Tang, and President Mr Gary Yeung have worked with the government to launch an Interactive Map Dashboard (hereafter called Dashboard) for effective dissemination and exchange of information related to the latest Wuhan Pneumonia infection.

The launch of the Dashboard is a Public-Private-Partnership led by the Development Bureau and Lands Department with support from SCC’s volunteer IT team.

The information available from Department of Health and Hospital Authority will be updated and presented on Dashboard using key indicators.
