SHARE: supporting large-scale rescue operations with communication and information services over mobile networks

Published: 18 September 2006 Publication History

Abstract

This paper presents the EU project SHARE which is developing a mobile service architecture to support large-scale rescue operations with multimedia communication and information services. The task of planning and controlling large-scale rescue operations requires flexible and robust tools which help the rescue forces to do their search and rescue work with maximum efficiency. Today the main channels of communication are analog radio and paper text forms. The SHARE system introduces an advanced multimedia communication and information system to the highly mobile working environment which supports well established command hierarchies of the rescue organizations. Different operation scenarios for mobile networks using WiMAX, WLAN or UMTS are discussed regarding their usability for large-scale rescue operations.
