PANTHEON

Project Name: Community-Based Smart City Digital Twin Platform for Optimised DRM operations and Enhanced Community Disaster Resilience

Description

PANTHEON will design and develop a Community based Digital Ecosystem for Disaster Resilience utilising Smart City Digital Twin (SCDT) technology and leveraging new and emerging technologies and innovations to improve risk assessment, reduce vulnerability, and building community disaster resilience. The aim is to enhance the operational capabilities of CBDRM (community based DRM) teams, by: a community based smart city digital twin environment with components used for simulations, training and evaluation of the behaviour of sub-systems, threats and human factor; an early Detection and Situational awareness environment enabling authorities and FR and SR (first and second) even in complex, remote and demanding locations; an integrated intelligent subsystem, by the utilisation of collaborative sensing from earth observations and swarms of UAVs optimised to autonomously perform UAV-assisted operations throughout all disaster phases. PANTHEON platform and technologies will be combined with IoT infrastructure, multi-source data (satellite and in situ data, social networks, historical data) to create a tool for assessment of risks, vulnerability and capacity assessment; disseminate and inform decision makers and the public for risks during disasters; engage citisens and stakeholders in the disaster resilience building and share knowledge and best practices; identify vulnerabilities and implement policies, strategies and plans to eliminate future disaster costs; enhance collaboration among people at the local level; promote the conduct of comprehensive surveys on multi-hazard disaster risks and the development of regional disaster risk assessments and maps, including climate change scenarios; promote and enhance, through international cooperation, including technology transfer, access to and the sharing and use of non-sensitive data and information; SCDT will enable collective community behavior into the assessments of exposure to urban multi-hazards across time and space.

Reason for applying to HSbooster.eu services

At this stage, the Consortium is trying to identify in which ways to engage with standardisation activities. Although HS Booster provides a variety of selections, regarding the support that PANTHEON requires, the Consortium has decided to opt for the categories of “How to search for and select appropriate standards”, “How to identify needs for new standards”, “How to get engaged in standardisation as an observer or participant”, “How to influence processes and outcomes of standardisation”. However, the project main target is to somehow participate in the development of a new standard, either if it already is at the stage of development, or even if it is at a preliminary stage. Another option would be to participate in the revision of existing standards. They believe the experience that project partners will gain through the development of digital twin technologies for disaster and crisis management purposes, will provide significant inputs to standards of a similar topic and even broaden the spectrum of digital twin technology applications, incorporating crisis management. The Consortium has already conducted research regarding relevant SDOs and Committees, however further consultation from HS Booster would be welcome, as the experts of the programme can pinpoint other SDOs and TCs or even specific under development standards that could be of interest for PANTHEON.
