TRIDEC

TRIDEC - Collaborative, Complex and Critical Decision-support in Evolving Crisis is a joint research and development project of ten european research facilities, enterprises and universities.
Within the scope of TRIDEC, research and development for innovative technologies are undertaken, supporting decision processes for the future of Earth management.
The project is funded by 6.8 Million Euro within the 7th Framework Programme for Research and Technological Development of the European Community under the section Cooperation/ICT’s topic „intelligent information management“
Software
The TRIDEC project develops software architectures and tools to overcome crisis situations and to mitigate losses and avoid negative impact by customized decision-making whenever possible.
The core challenge is the conception and development of an open platform for interoperable services, which enable intelligent event-driven management of very large data holdings and multiple information streams in crises situations.
Based on this, TRIDEC will develop a software-environment to support efficient collaboration of decison makers for complex, time-critical decision support.
Fields of Application
The technological approach is demonstrated in two fields of applications, which both are distinguished by the occurrance of very large data sets.
The first application scenario deals with the management of crises which are evoked by natural disasters. As an example, a virtual tsunami scenario is used.
The second application example focuses on crises situations which occur during the exploration of subsurface for drilling exploration, being a very cost intensive yet crucial approach for geologists.
Drilling projects are being constantly monitored by sensor networks to detect malfunctions as soon as possible. This helps to prevent losses and to guarantee the personal safety of drill rig staff.
