Alpine Disaster Relieve for Italy and Slovenia (ALPDIRIS)

Area of activity/subject: Disaster Relief

Summary of the project: During disaster relief first responders are faced with communications problems between the teams, operational centres and the headquarters. Information exchange between the entities to provide situational awareness is difficult with mainly voice communication, e-mails or faxes.

The project will update the tools used in disaster relief actions with new features and open them to all actors involved in the actions by introducing a common information space concept. To solve the lack of communication infrastructure, the project will implement a 4G LTE-Advanced cell system together with satellite access to create a high-performance mobile coverage in disaster areas.
