Workpackage WP-6

Main Public Safety Answering Point for emergency multimedia enriched calls

Objectives:

The objectives of WP5 is to develop an unified platform deployed in public safety answering points (PSAP) for efficient emergency incidents management through providing common operation picture and improved situational awareness based on 4 main pillars:

  1. Collecting and correlating multimodal events coming from disparate data sources
  2. Video management
  3. GIS analysis
  4. Incident and resource management
One of the main objectives of this work package is designing and developing of advanced presentation layer based on cutting edge GIS, analytic and visualization techniques. This will include research of novel interaction techniques and examine new presentation concepts in data analysis.

Workpackage WP-7

System development, integration and evaluation

Objectives:
  • To conceptualize the architecture and design specification of the beAWARE platform as to integrate the individual results from the work packages WP1 – WP6. The system architecture is a modularised blueprint for the platform’s construction, detailing how the software components involved will be put together and subsequently deployed. The principal aim of the architecture is to facilitate the initial design and development of the platform, by providing detailed enumeration, specification, and means of validation that each of the components built, meets the needs of the other components, or actors, using them.
  • To implement the beAWARE platform by integrating prior implemented components, thus delivering it as a usable platform for performing the pilots
  • To technically test the beAWARE platform with regard to each individual component and also with regard to their integration
  • To assure quality during the whole s/w development and integration process

Workpackage WP-8

Dissemination, exploitation and impact

Objectives:

The objectives of this WP are:

  • To develop a multi-dimensional communication and dissemination plan and promote the project’s developed services and outcomes in order to increase awareness among project’s stakeholders and the general public.
  • To provide viable business models that will lead to the long-term sustainability of the proposed approach involving all actors of the value chain
  • To plan and verify the exploitation potential, during and beyond the end of the project progress.The objectives of this WP are to manage the project to time and budget; to co-ordinate the activities; to monitor and adjust the implementation plan if necessary; to monitor the data management and the ethics.
