OVERWATCH kick-off meeting
On the 11th November in EUSPA Headquarters in Prague an official kick-off meeting for Overwatch project took place. The project is carried out by an international consortium composed of 9 partners from Portugal, Italy, Germany, Denmark and Poland (CIK CBK PAN), coordinated by an Italian company ITHACA.
The objective of OVERWATCH is to develop an integrated holographic management system for response, recovery and mitigation of emergencies and disasters, by enabling the authorities to quickly deploy and manage air, water and ground assets and personnel through decision support tools integrated in an immersive and decentralized command platform. This system will be supported by combining several services already offered by EGNSS and Copernicus Emergency Management and Security (for example and HAS and SAR) with digital technologies, artificial intelligence, drones, 5G, augmented reality which will provide the required performance to make this system a valuable resource for citizen, land and infrastructure protection.
