ROLES AND RESPONSIBILITIES in RESCULT

POLITO will supervise the database design and implementation (Task 2), ensuring all scientific and technical competences are integrated in the consortium to create a cutting edge interactive standard-based tool able to foster and promote interoperability and cooperation among Civil Protection and other targeted end-users and stakeholders. POLITO will realize the 3D survey of the case studies to be inserted in the database and will study their best optimization, format and characteristics for the specific application, together with the further thematic data. The educational nature by which the Politecnico is characterized will permit to easily do a part of the dissemination activity and also promote the topics and the developed tools during the project and after the project end. POLITO will also lead the training session for citizens.
