A4EU (ANYWHERE For Europe)
PPDR institutions have at their disposal a pan-European multi-hazard platform (A4EU) which provides a better identification of the expected weather-induced impacts and their location in time and space before they occur. Seven A4EU prototypes are currently running live operational at the Civil Protection command centres of seven pilot sites, representing different climatic scenarios around Europe.
