TIEMS Research and Technology Development (RTD)
Projects & Member Service
 
TIEMS members constitute a large international multidisciplinary group of experts, with different educational background and various experience in the field of emergency and disaster management. They represent an unique source of expertise and ideas, which is an important asset for research and development activities. TIEMS has therefore established a RTD service for its members:
  1. Based on members ideas, propose  RTD projects which can improve methods, systems, operations and technology in emergency and disaster management
  2. Initiate RTD Consortiums where TIEMS members can participate in RTD proposals  
  3. Inform members of established RTD Consortiums and RTD activity where TIEMS members can participate

It all started with the NARTUS project in 2006, finished in 2009, where TIEMS had the responsability for consensus building and establishing the Public Safety Communication Europe Forum:  http://www.psc-europe.eu/

Since then TIEMS has been invited to become a member of advisory or user boards/groups in a number of EU projects, including:
 
ACRIMAS (finished)  Opti – Alert (finished) Archimedes (Finished)
CRISMA  DRIVER 
TAWARA_RTM
EDEN PHAROS RESCUER
