REDACt aims at establishing a cross-border cooperation to promote common policies and strategies leading to sharing data, information and competencies in order to respond to major issues related to Earthquake Preparedness & Emergency Response, by providing reliable Real-Time information regarding the induced damages including structures, gas pipelines, lifelines and geotechnical failures; prompt dissemination of respective alert information and; improvement of the public response to emergencies. Shared competencies, information and data from the extensive earthquake monitoring networks maintained by partner countries and the joint efforts of a multi-disciplinary scientific partner team, will help develop a Rapid Earthquake Damage Assessment (REDA) System (REDAS) as a new, innovative ICT-based solution going beyond the existing practice in the field of Earthquake Early Warning, Damage Assessment & Response planning. By providing event-related real-time data, as well as earthquake damage level per structure typology in both the case of “what if” scenarios and Real Events, REDAS will help to substantially reduce response time in post-earthquake emergencies (a critical parameter for improving population safety). A smartphone app with information & data dissemination and communication capabilities will be developed to complement REDAS and disseminate emergency information to public. An “Educational Hub” as a 3rd ICT tool, will provide targeted education to will help raise public awareness and reaction capacity during emergencies. By providing solutions to Emergency Response problems, the combined REDAS Service will help improve Preparedness and Emergency Response efficiency thus strengthening Community Resilense against earthquakes. Since earthquake monitoring networks maintained by national authorities are deployed within national borders, lack of sufficient real-time data covering the “foreign” side of the border in Cross-Border Areas (CBA), limits planning and renders Emergency Response ineffective. By combining data and information from all sides of the borders, REDAS will solve this problem and provide to the Target Group, accurate and reliable information thus improving response efficiency in CBA. Services & Software will be open to potential users and their modular structure combined with focused dissemination activities, will ensure both adaptation to other areas as well as future expansion in order to fully cover the Black Sea Basin, ensuring sustainability and multiplication of results. By improving cooperation on disaster prevention related environmental monitoring and cross-border availability & interoperability of updated online public access data and data products, REDACt will help increase public safety. Project partners’ active involvement in engineering seismology and earthquake engineering fields at State level, ensures capitalization of project outputs and conversion to results for post earthquake emergencies.
