THE NAME OF THE PROJECT:
Commanding and Operations Mechanism for Multisector Analysis of Nexus Disaster data
ACRONYM OF THE PROJECT:
COMMAND d
PROJECT PARTNERS:
Zagrebacka County (The Republic of Croatia)
The Municipality of Tirana (The Republic of Albania)
The city of Tuzla (The Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina)
The city of Podgorica (Montenegro)
The city of Skopje (The Republic of North Macedonia)
BRIEFLY ABOUT THE PROJECT::
COMMAND d is a project devised to help support operations command centre be prepared for disasters at a local level. The results of the project will facilitate and accelerate data reception, GIS analysis/ simulation of developments, and emergency data transfer. Standard operating procedures in crisis situations will be established within the project, which will increase preparedness and enable all participants in the project to connect through a common IT platform.
COMMAND d will allow capacity analysis at the local level in Croatia, North Macedonia, and Montenegro (UCPM countries), as well as in Bosnia and Herzegovina, and Albania (IPA II countries).
Needs assessment will form the basis for the development of methodology, which will detail the decision-making supporting mechanisms, and civil protection system procedures at the local level.
Innovative tools for emergency response will enable::
-
various source data analysis (coming from fire department, emergency medical services, 112 Centre, Flood Protection Centre) in real time
-
faster collection and analysis of data submitted to the command and operations centre for more accurate monitoring and data transmission
-
faster exchange of the key data among all regional project partners through the standardization process and integration with national early warning systems
Ultimately, the results of the COMMAND d project will be the organization of five operations command centres, increased preparedness and easier decision-making process for the command hierarchy, ensuring rapid and timely activation and coordination of the operational forces, independent crisis communication through multiple and separate systems, as well as the ability to dislocate if needed.
