TRIDEC
TRIDEC - Collaborative, Complex and Critical Decision-support in Evolving Crisis is a joint research and development project of 10 European research institutes, companies and universities. As part of TRIDEC, innovative technologies to support decision-making processes in the earth management of the future are to be researched and developed.
The project is funded in the 7th Research Framework Program of the European Union in the funding line Cooperation / ICT under the topic "Intelligent Information Management " with 6.8 million euros.
software
In TRIDEC, new architectures and tools are being developed to overcome crisis situations and to ward off damage or negative influences, if possible, through appropriate decisions.
The central challenge is the design and development of an open platform for interoperable services that enables intelligent, event-driven management of very large amounts of data and diverse information flows in crisis situations. Based on this, a software environment is developed in TRIDEC that supports efficient cooperation between decision-makers in complex, time-critical decision-making processes .
Fields of application
The technological approach is demonstrated in two fields of application, both of which are characterized by the occurrence of extremely large amounts of data. The first application scenario deals with the management of crises that are caused by natural disasters . A synthetically generated tsunami scenario for the Mediterranean serves as an example .
The second application scenario focuses on crisis situations, as in the development of the subsurface by drilling can occur, an extremely important for geologists, but very expensive digestion method . Boreholes are permanently monitored using sensor networks and faults in drilling operations are identified at an early stage. This prevents losses and damage and ensures the safety of the personnel on drilling rigs .
