Project, Administrative and Technical Management
To ensure effective project coordination, quality assurance, risk management, financial oversight, data governance, and compliance across all SPARROW activities and partners.
Participatory co-designed SPARROW architecture
To develop novel technologies for emergency communication and collaborative preparedness through co-design activities with citizens, academics, SSH-experts, private sector and public authorities.
Digital breakdown resilience framework
To enhance crisis communication, collaborative preparedness, training and prevention planning of Civil Protection, private sector, critical infrastructures risk operators, regional/local authorities and citizens.
Dynamic, robust & interoperable emergency communication system
To evaluate SPARROW Tools & Methodologies for providing realistic digital breakdown resilience, through the validation over a series of planned Lab Tests, Table Top Exercises (TTX) & Field Trials Exercises (FTX) with the active engagement
SPARROW platform for collaborative preparedness training & response planning
To assess feasibility of adoption and design viable pathways for EU wide uptake of SPARROW solutions in civil protection plans for crisis preparedness.
SPARROW technology validation through table top exercises & field trials
To validate SPARROW tools and methodologies through realistic digital breakdown scenarios involving civil protection authorities, infrastructure operators, first responders, and citizens.
Dissemination, communication, exploitation and impact creation pathways
To maximize the impact and adoption of SPARROW through dissemination, stakeholder engagement, standardization activities, exploitation planning, policy recommendations, and EU-wide uptake pathways.
OBJECTIVES
SPARROW orchestrates large datasets and expert insights to create a dynamic digital twin of a city, which will become a robust testing ground for assessing vulnerabilities and preparing for diverse crisis scenarios.
THE CONCEPT
The fundamental concept driving SPARROW is the orchestration of extensive multi-source data, insights from past experiences, and expert opinions (bottom). These elements fuel a wide range of simulation tools, dynamically modelling realistic digital breakdown scenarios to comprehensively assess the vulnerabilities of a city and the underlying infrastructures
