GOBEYOND | GeO and weather multi-risk impact Based Early warning and response systems supporting rapid deploYment of first respONders in EU and beyonD

Summary
GOBEYOND is an innovation action that will develop and test Multi-Risk Impact-based Early Warning System (MR-IEWS) platforms for geohazards and weather/climate events adapted to support Civil Protection Authorities and first responders in their situational awareness and rapid deployment in Europe, countries of the Union for Mediterranean (UfM), and beyond. For this end, GOBEYOND will capitalise on the legacy of EWS for high-impact geo and weather/climate events, and on the impact-forecasting algorithms from previous projects of the consortium. GOBEYOND will identify most innovative algorithms for geohazards and incorporate them with available weather/climate impact-based algorithms into a common IEWS. These algorithms will be integrated with high-resolution vulnerability, exposure and risk information at regional and local levels to describe the severity of the hazards in terms of the expected socio-economic impacts to evolve towards a real-time DSSs. MR-IEWS will be co-designed in a participatory framework in which authorities, citizens, and civil society representatives can feel listened to, and actively engaged in co-design and co-creation roles. GOBEYOND will test the MR-IEWS platforms developed for international (Europe and UfM countries), regional and municipal environments. This will be done through the 5 regional demonstrations in Andalusia (ES), Attica (EL), Campania (IT), a Canton in Switzerland and the Al Hoceima province (Morocco). A sixth demonstration in 4 EU municipalities will test advanced capabilities as communication services based on the latest developments on Site Specific Warnings, crowdsourcing techniques, artificial intelligence, SMS Cell Broadcast, and capacities to trigger actions from regional emergency and self-protection plans. The platforms will run in 6 real-time 24/7 operational demonstrations during 24 Months of the project to test them in real-time under conditions of operational use, achieving TRL 7 and 8.
