The RESCUER project aims at developing a smart and interoperable computer-based solution for supporting emergency and crisis management.

Description

Large-scale events, such as the Brazilian street carnival, the FIFA Football World Cup or the Olympic Games, demand major concerns regarding security. In addition to the infrastructure organisation of such huge events, the safety of the visitors, in particular, is a central issue for the officials in charge, which is why the project “RESCUER” was initiated. With the help of intelligent information technology, an effective and efficient emergency and crisis management system shall be developed to ensure that the people visiting such major events will feel safe. An experimental prototype of RESCUER was tested in FIFA World Cup 2014 and will be operational for the Olympic Games in 2016. This European-Brazilian partnership includes 9 institutions from 4 countries (Brazil, Germany, Austria and Spain), with the Brazilian coordination of the Federal University of Bahia (UFBA) and the European coordination of the Fraunhofer Institute for Experimental Software Engineering IESE.
