PARTICLE in SENSORNETS 2023

PARTICLE has presented the paper “On the Path Towards Standardisation of a Sensor API for Forensics Investigations” at SENSORNETS 2023. Forensics investigations need to be conducted efficiently and accurately especially in situations where time is a scarce resource. Novel technologies, like forensic sensors, can aid investigators in trace detection, visualisation, Ler mais…

RISEN in Action

The aim of the RISEN project is the development of a set of realtime contactless sensors for the optimization of the trace, detection, visualisation, identification and interpretation on site, with a consequent reduction of the time and resources in the laboratory, and for a fast exchange of information among LEAs. Ler mais…

VALKYRIES – Harmonizing Response and Procedures for Emergencies and First-Aid Vehicles deployment

The increasing frequency and intensity of natural disasters require policies aimed at tackling these risks through preventive, preparedness, response and recovery actions. Increasing the resilience of infrastructure, ecosystems and society in the EU is an important strand of disaster risk management work. It is from this need that VALKYRIES was born, a project financed by the Ler mais…

Smart and Connected High-Density Sensor Networks

PARTICLE is involved in the deployment of the highest density sensor network dedicated to monitor seismic activity in Portugal. The network will be constituted by hundreds of sensors in the region of Évora. It will monitor strong seismic activity in real-time, allowing the generation of live shake maps. Importantly, the network is expected to: Enhance the knowledge on the characterisation of the seismic activity in the region through high-resolution mapping of clusters and faults; 2) Create an organised database populated with live data from the high-density seismic network; 3) Rapid assess ground shaking movements (e.g., earthquake); 4) Improve geohazard assessments.
