Crisis management and civil protection
Having to deal with emergency situations caused by humans or by natural
disasters SELEX Sistemi Integrati aims at defining and organising a support
system for civil protection organisations. This is based on an operation room
and an information system. This solution enables communication of information
to operators via database. It also ensures greater interoperability between
teams thereby strengthening situation awareness on a local and nationwide
level.
The main functions and components of crisis management systems for civil
protection are:
Sources of information Command and control- Multi-sensor data fusion
- Common operational picture
- Alarm management
- Workflow management
- Shared collaboration
Value-added services- Ad hoc network
- TETRA
- Satellite communications
- System security
Effectors- Ground-based effectors (vehicles equipped with sensors, wireless
communications, decision support tools)
- Helicopters
