2. Scientific problem - Definition
Increased Motorcycles in the country
The number of roads never increased at the same rate
competition for almost the same space
Little or no training on riding safety
it is well known that many riders have little formal training on safety on the road
Accidents
Even in regions without cars, the phenomenon of motorbike accidents is very much present.
In the Provincial General Hospital in Nakuru, the 80 capacity surgical ward is predominantly always occupied by victims of motorcycle accidents, 90% of who are men. It is also extremely worrying that 50% of those men are youths, aged between 19 and 35, and we are also ware that 40% of the accident victims succumb to their injuries. 2

3. Scientific Problem - Solution
Build a public health gateway
Build a web portal for recording data on such accidents (By doctors and Police)
Build a real time mobile interface dispatcher to broadcast relevant information to the public
Build the interfaces on open science gateways:
Create an underlying RESTful API for the system using gLibrary and FutureGateway
Create a schema-less DB (Mongo DB) and link it to the two gateways

4. Catania Hackfest Tools used gLibrary Future Gateway
Set up a FutureGateway instance on a VM at Catania using the baseline installation scripts
Create data analyzer that runs data (from gLibrary) analysis jobs and returns results
Create REST APIs over new datasets for the health gateway
Implement data storage on the Open-Stack Based storage server at Catania 4
