Project description:

The main objective of the project is development of the Dynamic Expertise Integration Networks framework (DEIN), a novel tool for high-quality situation assessment validated in the crisis management settings involving fire fighting and chemical incidents. The tool will enhance crisis management in several complementary ways:

• Provide quick advice to the users (e.g. firefighters) based on rich expertise and the relevant information
• Prevent – miscommunication, data loss, misinterpretation and information flood.

In principle, DEIN is an Actor Agent system which facilitates networking between experts and machines serving professionals in the field, such as fire fighter commanders, with the information on various crucial aspects. There is a strong involvement of Milieudienst Rijnmond (DCMR) in the project.
