The Challenge
Weather-related disasters deeply affect our society and cause huge economic losses. Over the last 30 years, these phenomena have increased in frequency or magnitude across the globe due to climate change, resulting in more devastating potential impacts for people and goods.
Significant progress and advances in scientific understanding, monitoring and prediction of high-impact weather events have been made in recent years. However, there is still room for improvement with systems of manage weather-related emergencies.
From floods and forest fires to drougths, heatwaves, convective storms, winds, storms surges or snowfall, organizations that are engaged in disaster management are facing a variety of meteorological weather-induced hazards.
As a result, developing tools, processes and best practices to manage weather-related emergencies more effectively is becoming an increasingly global priority.
ANYWHERE has developed solutions that support a new concept of emergency management able to enhance the response capacity of PPDR institutions through Europe and beyond.
Besides to a decision-support platform intended for Civil Protections, ANYWHERE also fosters to enhance the self-preparedness and self-protection of the population to minimise its vulnerability in front of extreme weather-induced episodes.
