Smart Dengue Alert Backend

Overview

The Smart Dengue Alert Backend is a Node.js application that provides APIs for fetching weather data, predicting dengue risk, and storing prediction results. It interacts with a weather API and a machine learning model to deliver accurate predictions based on current weather conditions.

Features

• Fetch Current Weather Data: Retrieves real-time weather information for a specified location.
• Get Dengue Risk Prediction: Analyzes weather data to predict the risk of dengue outbreaks.
• Store Predictions: Saves prediction results associated with user IDs in a MongoDB database.

Technologies

• Node.js: JavaScript runtime used for building the backend.
• Express: Web framework for creating the RESTful API.
• MongoDB: NoSQL database for storing weather and prediction data.
• Axios: HTTP client for making API requests.
• JSON Web Tokens (JWT): Used for authentication and authorization.
