Commanding and Operations Mechanism for Multisector Analysis of Nexus Disaster data (COMMAND d)

Summary of the action:

Commanding & Operations Mechanism for Multi-sectoral Analysis of Nexus Disaster Data - COMMAND d is a project supporting Command and Operations Centre (hereafter COC) in disaster preparedness at local level. It will facilitate rapid multi-sectoral data reception, GIS supported analysis/simulation and transfer of emergency data. It will be standardized for all emergency preparedness actors and linked between all project countries via joint IT platform. COMMAND d will enable Capacity Analysis of local level COCs in Croatia, North Macedonia and Montenegro (UCPM countries), Bosnia & Herzegovina and Albania (IPA II countries). Respective Needs Assessments will present basis for development of methodology detailing mechanisms in support of decision-making process and standardized crisis communication procedures in the civil protection systems at local level. Innovative IT emergency response tool will enable consolidation of data from various sources (firefighters, water management agencies, emergency medical centers, 112 centers), faster collection and analysis of data delivered to COC aiming for more accurate data monitoring and information transfer. It will encompass real-time analysis, accelerate the exchange of key data among all project partners in the region through standardization process, be linked with national early warning systems, supported by GIS tools and as such enable predictions and simulations whilst harmonized with ERCC procedures. As a result, 5 respective COCs will increase overall preparedness by facilitating decision-making process for command structures, ensuring speedy/timely activation and coordination of operational forces. COMMAND d will result with best practice EU example of stationary COC allowing for independent communication via multiple and separate systems, having independent power supply and securing quick dislocation in case of disasters via mobile component which will support IPA II countries in COC development at local level.
