Imagine if you could predict not just one storm, but how a flood might trigger a power outage which then crashes a hospital's systems. This tool acts like a high-tech simulator for cities and businesses to see these domino effects before they happen. It helps people test different safety plans to see which one actually saves the most lives and money.
Current disaster management tools only look at one hazard at a time, ignoring how events like floods and power failures trigger each other. This leads to underestimated risks and ineffective mitigation spending.
A service-oriented web tool and a risk management system that allows users to build and test disaster scenarios based on climate projections and local data.
If you are an insurer dealing with unpredictable climate-related losses — this project developed a decision support system that predicts cascading impacts on physical and economic systems. This allows for more accurate risk pricing and better loss prevention strategies.
If you are a grid operator dealing with aging structures and extreme weather — this project developed a web tool that models how hazards interact. You can use it to evaluate if a specific reinforcement project actually increases your network's resilience.
If you are a city planner dealing with shifting demographics and flood risks — this project developed a scenario-building tool. It helps you visualize the impact of different mitigation actions on local populations and resources.
Based on available project data, no specific pricing or cost structure is mentioned as it was an EU-funded research project.
The project developed a service-oriented web tool validated across 4 European testbeds, suggesting it is designed for regional and local scale application.
Based on available project data, specific licensing terms are not provided, though it was developed by a consortium of 18 partners.
The system integrates historical records, future climate projections, and multi-hazard indicators into a web-based interface.
The project ran from 2022-10-01 to 2025-09-30, meaning the tool is currently in its final stages of development and validation.
The consortium is heavily weighted toward research and academia, with 7 universities and 5 research institutes. However, it maintains a practical edge with 18 total partners and a small but significant industrial presence (11% industry ratio), including 3 SMEs, ensuring the tool is grounded in operational needs.
