About project


Every day fires occur and half of them are assigned of increased complexity a category .

In 50% of cases, fires occur through human fault, 30% - due to natural disasters, especially in the summer.

The outcome of the situation depends on the speed capability and the completeness of the information. Thanks to the use of modern technologies and onlooker assistance, a rapid response is provided.

The complex system includes a mobile application for instant response to an emergency situation, as well as alerting special services and people nearby.


Project Functionality


An complex system “Incident” consists of a userfriendly mobile application and a web part for special services. The mobile application uses automatic geolocation of the user's current location with the transfer to the server; Interactive satellite maps, with the possibility of fixing the incident in real time with the addition of a brief information about the incident ant photos with geotags.

Feature of this application is the function of instant notification about incidents special services.

Users with installed application will receive notifications about unfolding catastrophe The application is easily expandable and multi-modular, which will allow to add / monitor incidents that have a different nature of occurrence (fire, flood, gas leak, automobile accident, etc.) in the future.

The Web part contains satellite and various interactive maps, which allow to get the most complete information (in the future: weather, wind speed and direction, etc.).

A feature of our complex system is the operative gathering of reliable information from various sources and the possibility (in the long term) of predicting incidents in space and time (potentially dangerous places, locations with often occurring emergency situations).
