Andalucía region

Demonstration overview

The Andalucía demonstration spans the entire autonomous region, home to 8.5 million people, with focused actions in three municipalities: Estepona, Lepe, and Isla Cristina. This pilot explores how a Multi-Risk Impact-based Early Warning System (MR-IEWS) can be integrated across regional emergency response protocols, enhancing coordination across institutional layers—from local to national levels.

A key challenge lies in managing multiple spatial scales and facilitating effective information flow between municipal responders and regional civil protection bodies.

Solution

The solution includes a tailored implementation of the MR-IEWS platform, supported by HYDS, aiming to enhance regional emergency management.

This platform currently focuses on hydrometeorological risks, with ongoing enhancements for tsunami and wildfire management. The objective is to integrate existing systems—such as GEA/PIGEA (for inter-agency communication) and fiResponse™ (for wildfire incident management)—within a unified GOBEYOND interface.

Specific features include:
- Improved fire weather index with localized parameters (e.g., live fuel moisture)
- Enhanced tsunami protocols for risk dissemination and rapid response coordination

This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon Europe programme for research and innovation under grant agreement No. 101121135.
