Title:

Bridging resources and agencies in large-scale emergency management

Description:

Das Projekt BRIDGE hat zum Ziel, zu erhöhter Sicherheit und zum Wohlergehen europäischer Bürgerinnen und Bürger beizutragen. Dazu werden Mechanismen und Maßnahmen erarbeitet, die es ermöglichen, dass sich in weitreichenden Krisen- oder Katastrophensituationen die beteiligten Einsatzorganisationen und -kräfte rascher und besser koordinieren und effektivere Hilfe leisten können.

Die Mechanismen und Maßnahmen sind technischer, organisatorischer und kommunikativer Natur. Speziell sollen informationstechnische Lösungen entwickelt werden, welche

-die Koordination und Kooperation von Hilfsorganisationen, die unterschiedliche Ziele, Aufgaben und technische Ausrüstung haben und ggf. aus unterschiedlichen Ländern kommen, entscheidend verbessern,

-die Interoperabilität von anfallenden Daten und eingesetzten Informations-systemen bei großen Hilfseinsätzen ermöglichen,

-der Einsatzleitung bzw. den Einsatzleitungen ein möglichst aktuelles und vollständiges Lagebild übersichtlich präsentieren und dadurch wertvolle Entscheidungsvorbereitung und -unterstützung bieten,

-die Kommunikation zwischen den Einsatzkräften und mit der Einsatzleitung besonders durch mobile Geräte und multi-modale Benutzungsschnittstellen erleichtern.

Title:

BRIDGE: Bridging resources and agencies in large-scale emergency management (BRIDGE)

Description:

The goal of BRIDGE is to increase safety of citizens by developing technical and organisational solutions that significantly

improve crisis and emergency management. The key to this is to ensure interoperability, harmonization and cooperation

among stakeholders on the technical and organisational level.

Therefor BRIDGE delivers:

- Resilient ad-hoc network infrastructures, focussing on the requirements evolving from emergency scenarios

- Generic, extensible middleware to support integration of data sources, networks, and systems

- Context management system to foster interoperability of data, providing meaningful, reliable information

Technical interoperability is crucial for improving multi-agency collaboration and continuous training, but its full potential can

only unfold, if technology can be integrated and sustained into agency workflows and communication processes. On the level

of organisational harmonisation, BRIDGE will provide:

- Methods and tools that support run-time intra- and inter-agency collaboration

- Model-based automated support system combined with scenario-based training

- Agent-based dynamic workflow composition and communication support system

Making available an increasing amount of data for crisis response systems has to be accompanied with developing intelligent

human-computer interaction models to make these data usable. BRIDGE will contribute to this by developing:

- Adaptive, multi-modal user interfaces

- Novel stationary and mobile interaction techniques

- Approaches on how to raise awareness through visualization of ad-hoc networks

BRIDGE is committed to an iterative user-centred approach incorporating and validating user and domain requirements.
