CCC addressed
- Anticipate vulnerability, and communicate to the public (TOP CHALLENGE)
- Manage key information focused on decision-making
- Forecast and simulate complex scenarios
Scope, rationale, context: general description. Precise here if this technology is currently use (eg. company name or contact info) Ofire+ is a human-centered decision-support system for managing (prevention, early warning information and response) crises related to the occurrence of wildfires. The key components of the system are the cloud application (administrator) and the mobile application (users). The two parts complement each other and the communication channel they create through their connectivity is the main advantage of the system, in addition to the individual functionalities and information provided by each component separately. The cloud application (admin) is intended to facilitate the operational needs of security managers of private or public critical infrastructure such as touristic, industrial, health, cultural, archeological, municipal and others. The mobile application is intended to be utilized by residents, visitors and/ or field actors such as civil protection volunteers, security crews and others, who can be found on site of infrastructures having the system in operation The system is currently under development by Omikron SA.
