The 112 telephone number, in its continuous effort to improve its service to the Canarian inhabitants, is making a bid for innovation applied to Emergencies Management. This can be seen in its support to multiple initiatives, among which is PLATEA.
CEANI is composed by a multidisciplinary team of engineers (in several fields as Industry, Telecommunications, Computer Science) Physicists, Chemists, Mathematicians and other specialists. Since 1992 it is devoted to R+D+i in Modelling, Simulation, Optimization and Reliability solving problems related both to environment and industry. CEANI is an active member of several European, National and Canarian projects and networks. CEANI organizes periodically scientific-technical events (congresses, courses, meetings and workshops) and it maintains a regular activity in science and technology which supports its scientific publications, engineering projects and advanced developments in software. CEANI was in its origins an ULPGC research Service and nowadays is a research division of the Intelligent Systems and Numerical Applications in Engineering Institute (SIANI).
Platea 4D Presentation (Justice and Security Vicecouncil)
The 112 telephone number, in its continuous effort for improving its service given to the Canaries inhabitants, is betting on innovation applied to the Emergencies Management and so it is facing several initiatives. One of them is PLATEA, the Geotemporal exploitation and analysis platform that will be presented below, developed by the Canarian Government, Las Palmas de Gran Canaria University and Fundación Canaria Universitaria.
PLATEA 4D is a platform to help the decision making process necessary for optimal response planning in emergency situations such as contaminant events in the environment, accidents where hazardous substances are involved, adverse meteorological phenomena, forest fires, etc.
It is designed for diverse functions:
It allows the monitoring and evaluation of a risk scenario, generating preventive measures to minimize the incident’s risk.
It makes simulations of risk scenarios to predict their possible evolution and importance.
It generates actuation protocols for helping the planning and/or management of emergencies.
