Descrizione del progetto
Facilitare una più ampia diffusione dei sistemi di allarme pubblico
La Commissione europea lancerà il servizio di allarme per le emergenze (EWS, Emergency Warning Service) di Galileo nel 2023. Questo servizio avviserà il pubblico in caso di catastrofi incombenti, tra cui incendi, tempeste, inondazioni, tsunami e vulcani. I destinatari dei messaggi EWS saranno i cittadini dotati di smartphone abilitati a Galileo e i soggetti interessati ai sistemi di allarme pubblici. Il secondo gruppo (quelli senza smartphone) necessita di specifiche apparecchiature per ricevere ed elaborare i messaggi EWS. In quest’ottica, il progetto EWOKS, finanziato dall’UE, svilupperà tale sistema globale di navigazione satellitare (GNSS, Global Navigation Satellite System). Il consorzio EWOKS riunirà le parti interessate necessarie,coinvolgendo inoltre clienti come l’autorità di Protezione Civile slovena. L’Università di Strasburgo, partner del progetto, presenterà anche il collegamento tra l’EWS di Galileo e il servizio di gestione delle emergenze di Copernicus.
Obiettivo
In 2023, the European Commission will launch the Galileo Emergency Warning Satellite Service (EWSS).
EWSS is a worldwide service to broadcast emergency warnings linked to natural or man-made disasters, with the major advantage to remain operational when all terrestrial communication networks are down, and in places where they do not exist at all.
Final recipients of EWSS messages (EWM) are primarily citizens equipped with Galileo enabled smartphones, but another category of end-users exists: Public Warning Systems (PWS) stakeholders. For this latter, a specific GNSS equipment is needed to receive and process the EWM, this equipment being integrated in fixed devices which alert citizens via audio, video and text alert messages (such as Long-Range Acoustic Devices or Digital Panels) or adequate digital messages flows within IT systems.
The purpose of the AWARE project is to develop this specific GNSS equipment, also secured by the OS-NMA feature. AWARE will also prepare the adoption of EWSS by European Civil Protection Authorities by performing activities in support to EUSPA and EC for the service deployment, dissemination activities aiming at building the AWARE ecosystem within the PWS B2B and B2G markets. AWARE consortium gathers all the necessary competencies ensuring the success of the project with FDC as GNSS receiver manufacturer, Telespazio and EENA with experience on the design and deployment of public safety services (GRALLE, HELP112), CNES as operator of Toulouse SAR/Galileo Service Centre, where the EWSS service centre will be hosted. End to End demonstrations will be performed with JCDecaux and Genasys, PWS equipment providers and solution integrators, and will involve customers such as the Slovenian Civil Protection Authority. The bridge between Galileo EWSS and Copernicus EMS will also be showcased by UNISTRA.
The draft business plan demonstrates the consortium commitment to go to the market and the high probability of a quick R.o.I.
