forces are often exposed to great and unpredictable dangers and risks, as there are only a few reliable information regarding the current situation with regard to deployment planning.  For planning-relevant information, for example, the location and status of sources of danger or accessibility are considered. In advance, digital or paper-based information - e.g. Plans or reference works - often already available in many crisis situations. But these have the big disadvantage that they are not based on the current conditions on site. Forces often face unpredictable and therefore unexpected risks in the required reconnaissance. There are individual and different solutions for the detection of hazardous substances on the part of sensors as well as of robotics. However, there is currently no system worldwide which quickly provides a situation image (visually in 3D) in real time for the Sudden, urgent, usually unexpected occurrence or event requiring immediate action.

closes the project SecuRescue.

SecuRescue therefore aims to improve the basis for decision-making by means of technological support, and in particular by means of ongoing rexploration results, for resource planning. As an integral part, 3D terrain data from a high-quality laser scanner and data from sensors, such as images of a novel 3D 360 ° panoramic camera or sensor data on hazardous substances, merged. The airborne laser scanner system, optionally extended by a (thermal imaging) camera, is used from an unmanned aerial vehicle. For potential hazards, such as Fire, leakage of hazardous materials or radioactivity, the unmanned aerial vehicle, explores the terrain to allow real-time creation of an interactive map (COP). The determined measured values of the sensors (for example: gas and pollutant concentrations, gamma radiation, etc.) are displayed in this map as hotspots. This virtual map gives the dispatcher an overview of the area of risk. Through this information, the chief of operations or the specialists of the respective field of expertise can make a better Assessment is a test, examination or similar, designed to assess a candidate’s knowledge, understanding or skills in a defined area.

of the situation before emergency services enter the danger zone. As a result of the project, the emergency forces are provided via tablet-PC with interctive maps with different levels of content (eg maps, building floors, levels including the existing pollutants such as: gases, radioactivity, ...), which facilitate the deployment planning. So it is possible to explore operations in a potentially life-threatening environment without putting their personnel at risk.
