Geospatial based Environment for Optimisation Systems Addressing Fire Emergencies (GEO-SAFE)

Start date: Feb 1, 2016, End date: Jan 31, 2020,

In EU and Australia, every year thousands of square miles of forests and other lands burn due to wildfires. These fires cause important economic and ecological losses, and often, human casualties. Both EU and Australian governments are aware of how crucial it is to improve wildfires’ management and containment. Scientists from different specialties, both in EU and Australia, have already developed ...

Technological and Methodological Solutions for Integrated Wide Area Situation Awareness and Survivor Localisation to Support Search and Rescue Teams (INACHUS)

Start date: Jan 1, 2015, End date: Dec 31, 2018,

Crisis incidents result in difficult working conditions for Urban Search-and-Rescue (USaR) crews. INACHUS aims to achieve a significant time reduction and increase efficiency in USaR operations by providing:1.Simulation tools for estimating the locations of survival spaces (after a structural collapse) and identify the location of survivors for different construction types and building materials2. ...

A panEuropean framework for strengthening Critical Infrastructure resilience to climate change (EU-CIRCLE)

Start date: Jun 1, 2015, End date: May 31, 2018,

It is presently acknowledged and scientifically proven than climate related hazards have the potential to substantially affect the lifespan and effectiveness or even destroy of European Critical Infrastructures (CI), particularly the energy, transportation sectors, buildings, marine and water management infrastructure with devastating impacts in EU appraising the social and economic losses. The ma ...

Deployable SAR Integrated Chain with Unmanned Systems (DARIUS)

Start date: Mar 1, 2012, End date: Feb 28, 2015,

Unmanned systems through military programs and numerous R&D projects are now becoming operationally mature. Their use in Search and Rescue operations can now be envisaged to enhance first responder capabilities and intervene in hazardous areas. For cost and procedural reasons however, the market is still very fragmented and business models are unclear.The DARIUS project will leverage previous R&D ...

A holistic approach towards the development of the first responder of the future (E-SPONDER)

Start date: Jul 1, 2010, End date: Dec 31, 2014,

"The E-SPONDER is a suite of real-time data-centric technologies which will provide actionable information and communication support to first responders that act during abnormal events (crises) occurring in critical infrastructures. This information will enable improved control and management, resulting in real time synchronization between forces on the ground (police, rescue, firefighters) and ou ...

Emergency Support System (ESS)

Start date: Jun 1, 2009, End date: May 31, 2013,

"The Emergency Support System (ESS) is a suite of real-time data-centric technologies which will provide actionable information to crisis managers during abnormal events. This information will enable improved control and management, resulting in real time synchronization between forces on the ground (police, rescue, firefighters) and out-of-theater command and control centers (C&C). The approach g ...

Adaptation of Mediterranean woodlands to climate change effects. (FOR CLIMADAPT)

Start date: May 31, 2010, End date: May 30, 2013,

Mediterranean forest ecosystems now show the first damages linked notably to climate change. Their managers are mostly unable to react properly. Through the project, the partners aim to develop, share and disseminate efficient management tools and techniques to foster the adaptation of these natural areas to a modified climate. All commonly-agreed solutions will be made available not only to terri ...

Second Generation Locator for Urban Search and Rescue Operations (SGL for USaR)

Start date: Oct 1, 2008, End date: Oct 31, 2012,

The Second Generation Locator for Urban Search and Rescue Operations (SGL for USaR) is mission oriented towards solving critical problems following large scale structural collapses in urban locations. The devotion, courage and expertise of rescuers need to be matched by procedures and technology that will enable safe and effective responses. This Integrated Project will combine chemical and physic ...
