State-of-the-Art in Risk Management Technology: Implementation and Trial for Usability in Engineering Practice and Policy (START_it_up)
Start date: Aug 31, 2013, End date: Nov 29, 2014,
Within the scope of Pr. 3 of ASP 2007-13 major innovation capacities were focused on knowledge development in Natural Hazard/Risk Management (NHRM) & Risk Governance (RG) (eg. innovation in hazard mapping/protection technology) in various funded projects (& other ETC/national-R&D initiatives). START_it_up will capitalise this knowledge pool by enhancing it into a transnational common state-of-the- ...

Sustainable Integrated Management of International River Corridors in SEE Countries (SEE RIVER)
Start date: Sep 30, 2012, End date: Sep 29, 2014,
Rivers in SEE region are often threatened by unsustainable use, increasing human pressure, and problems of increased floods and droughts driven by climate change. Inhabitation of floodplain areas, hydropower utilization, navigation, gravel and sand extraction, unsustainable tourism etc. lead to changes in morphology, increased pollution, degradation of aquatic habitats, as well as land use conflic ...

maNET - Permafrost long-term monitoring network (PermaNET)
Start date: Jun 30, 2008, End date: Jul 13, 2011,
Permafrost is highly sensitive to climatic changes. Permafrost degradation and related natural hazards affect traffic routes, tourism areas, settlements and infrastructures. The main problem is a lacking strategy for the consideration of these newly observed specific impacts of climate change in risk prevention and territorial development. With the joint development of a common strategy for dealin ...

Alpine Integrated GPS Network: Real-Time Monitoring and Master Model for Continental Deformation and Earthquake Hazard (ALPS-GPSQUAKENET)
Start date: Dec 31, 2003, End date: Dec 30, 2006,
The use of modern space based techniques gives us new potential to monitor and prevent natural risk, reduce economic losses, and save lives.The aim of the ALPS-GPSQUAKENET is to build up a high-performance transnational space geodetic network of Global Positioning System (GPS) receivers in the Alpine Space. This GPS array, within the millimeter-per-year precision, will represent the first ever ins ...
