The SIMULATOR-ADS project (Integrated Modulare System for Risk Management and Prevention – Enriched with Satellite Data) was an initiative carried out under the Regional Operational Program 2014-2020, “INVESTMENTS IN FAVOR OF GROWTH AND EMPLOYMENT” (co-financed by FESR), which was part of PRIORITY AXIS I – STRENGTHENING RESEARCH, DEVELOPMENT AND INNOVATION, Action I.1.b.1.3 – Support for collaborative R&D activities for the development of new sustainable technologies, new products and services, under the Call for LINEA R&S PER AGGREGAZIONI.
The project was developed with the aim of supporting Local Administrators and Civil Protection Operators in the phases of forecasting, prevention, and response to natural events (hydraulic/hydrogeological risk, forest fire/interface risk, seismic risk) or anthropic events (chemical/industrial risk), through a decision support system and a WebGIS powered by heterogeneous sources, including satellite images (flooded and burned areas), institutional and modeled scenarios, weather forecasts, and territorial sensors.
SIMULATOR-ADS resulted in the creation of two products:
-
an innovative platform to support local authorities in monitoring and real-time risk management;
-
an app used by Civil Protection operators and citizens to submit reports to the platform.
The platform was prepared to contribute to the E015 digital ecosystem.
The project partners are:
