Data Interoperability Solution At STakeholders Emergencies Reaction (DISASTER)

Start date: Feb 1, 2012, End date: Jan 31, 2015,

Emergency management becomes more challenging in an international crisis episode because of cultural, linguistic and legal differences between all stakeholders, especially first responders. Misunderstandings between first responders makes decision-making slower and more difficult. However, spread and development of networks and Emergency Management Systems (EMS) has improved emergency responses, b ...
