SYNERGISE will design, develop, integrate, deploy, test, validate and demonstrate a Novel Integrated Toolkit for Collaborative Response and
Enhanced Situational Awareness (NIT-CRES), at the service of response agencies which ensures an upgrade to managing of complex incidents. This
will comprise a multitude of tools and services required for: 1) boosting situational awareness and sense-making by offering them the means to
autonomously and synergistically perform indoor and outdoor exploration of incident sites towards victim identification whilst receiving at all times
information about responders’ position and vitals as well as analyses of passive and active threats and hazards at the area of operations and 2)
upgrading collaborative response and incident as well resources management by continuously sharing and updating the common operational picture
across deployed teams, among the chain of command and between participating agencies. The NIT-CRES armors the FRs at all fronts by delivering
novel, affordable, accepted, and customized response tools and services as part of their operational assets. Notably, the toolkit abides to privacy,
ethical, security and legal constraints by design, considers an increased degree of inclusiveness for its operators and its set-up facilitates collaborative
response addressing standard operating procedures. The NIT-CRES will be provided at the service of the search and rescue personnel, fire brigades,
emergency medical, police and civil protection agencies for extensive testing, training and validation (at component and Toolkit levels) in the
framework of a rich Integration, Testing and Validation Activities Programme – of Round Tables (RTs), Collaborative Lab Tests (CLTs), Technical
Integration Workshop (TIWS), Component Field Tests (CFTs) and System Field Tests (SFTs) – towards empowering collaborative response and
handling of complex incidents to its fullest.
