4th ODS3F Progress Meeting, 15 May 2014, Rome
Objective and expected resultsDevelopment of a common understanding of the capabilities of vision (optical or thermal) and detection systems on which a fire remote detection network can be based.
Defining agreed criteria capable to guide the decision about the adoption of situation reports based upon remote observation system, in terms of convenience and/or basic characteristics (visible or thermal camera).
Evaluating, through an agreed evaluation scheme, the performances of the already available monitoring systems based on visible or thermal camera already available in the countries of the project partners;
Assessing the possibility of complementing the monitoring network with a system capable to simulate the fire behaviour providing the most probable, time dependent, propagation conditions by taking into account the meteorological conditions, the orography and fuel (vegetation) type and status;
4th ODS3F Progress Meeting, 15 May 2014, Rome
Objective and expected results
Define an optimized system, Define a standardized set of information, Define a common method of using the situational reports for
enhancing the correct, effective and efficient utilization of the available data in facing emergencies (as wildfires are) and in reducing their consequences.
A guideline describing the elements to be taken into account for selecting the most suitable surveillance system for monitoring, protecting a given area of interest and for optimizing the exploitation of the produced information.
The adoption of these technologies as common and shared good practices at EU level.
Task Title Actions
