Project duration:

October 2024 - September 2027

Background:

The FORESIGHT project addresses the escalating challenge of managing urban and wildfire disasters in low-visibility conditions, intensified by climate change and urban growth. Recognizing the limitations first responders face, project FORESIGHT is developing advanced, cost-effective tools to enhance response capabilities. The project aims to equip responders with technologies that improve visibility through smoke, fire, and dust, boost situational awareness, and streamline last-mile logistics in disaster zones. Integrating ethical, legal, and security standards, the project’s toolkit will undergo rigorous testing to ensure real-world applicability, aiming to revolutionize emergency response and support civil protection agencies across diverse, challenging scenarios.

Objectives

Improving last-kilometer navigation & transportation of emergency personnel, equipment and relief items in hazardous and challenging environments
