Objectives

1. Develop a pan-European inventory of past critical events/disasters and their consequences focusing on the performance of processes, data exchange and organisational boundaries

2. Develop a concept of a common information space including appropriate semantic definitions by taxonomies and/or ontologies.

3. Analysing existing interoperability concepts and develop the architecture and a prototype of a common information space

4. Validation of the architecture and proposal for novel Emergency and Crisis Management Models

Additional results from the application of the methodology


Procedures are in place for communications between the same stakeholder type (37 percent and 44 percent), while only 19 percent of SOP regulate the

communication between strategic and tactical entities.

Categories of the inventory

1. Organisation 2. Data processed and formats used 3. Processes adopted 4. Tools used 5. Business Model 6. Disasters, detailed with:

– Spatial extension – Response – Effects/Impacts – Environment – Data


Basic structure of the Inventory


Online questionnaire derived from the inventory


Future work on the inventory

• The data structure for the inventory is completed • On-line questionnaires have been developed and are

being submitted to users and stakeholders. • The preliminary design of the taxonomy for the

Common Information Space is in progress, waiting for the compilation of the inventory for refinement

• Deliver the inventory and its methodology so that it can stay alive and be regularly updated
