Development of an integrated analysis system for the effective fire conservancy of forests (CALCHAS)
Start date: Mar 1, 2010, End date: Aug 31, 2013,
Background
Fire represents a significant threat to forests and wooded areas of the Mediterranean basin. It destroys more trees than any other natural disaster, such as parasite attacks, insects, tornadoes, and frost. The average annual number of forest fires throughout the Mediterranean basin is close to 50 000, twice as many as during the 1970s. In recen ...

Fire Detection and Management through a Multi-Sensor Network for the Protection of Cultural Heritage Areas from the Risk of Fire and Extreme Weather Conditions (FIRESENSE)
Start date: Dec 1, 2009, End date: Feb 28, 2013,
"The proposed project aims to develop an automatic early warning system to remotely monitor areas of archaeological and cultural interest from the risk of fire and extreme weather conditions. Since these areas have been treasured and tended for very long periods of time, they are usually surrounded by old and valuable vegetation or situated close to forest regions, which exposes them to an increas ...

PRediction and interpretatiOn of huMan behaviour based on probabilistic sTructures and HEterogeneoUs Sensors (prometheus)
Start date: Jan 1, 2008, End date: Dec 31, 2010,
The project intends to establish a link between fundamental sensing tasks and automated cognition processes that concern the understanding a short-term prediction of human behaviour as well as complex human interaction. The analysis of human behaviour is unrestricted environments, including localization and tracking of multiple people and recognition of their activities, currently constitutes a t ...
