Résumé en anglais
Following a call by the European Commission on Disaster Resilience and Climate, the STORM partnership was formed by 20 partners, dedicated to 5 main sites: Mellor (England), Rome (Italy), Rethymno (Greece), Tróia (Portugal) and Ephesus (Turkey), presenting the rich diversity of European cultural assets. This project proposes a set of novel predictive models and improved non-invasive and non-destructive methods of survey and diagnosis, for effective prediction of environmental changes and for revealing threats and conditions that could damage cultural heritage sites. Moreover, STORM will determine how different vulnerable materials, structures and buildings are affected by different extreme weather events together with risks associated with climatic conditions or natural hazards, offering improved, effective adaptation and mitigation strategies, systems and technologies. An integrated system featuring novel sensors (intra fluorescent and wireless acoustic sensors), legacy systems, state of the art platforms (including LiDAR and UAVs), as well as crowdsourcing techniques will be implemented, offering applications and services over an open cloud infrastructure. An important result of STORM will be a cooperation platform for collaboratively collecting and enhancing knowledge, processes and methodologies on sustainable and effective safeguarding and management of European Cultural Heritage. The system will be capable of performing risk assessment of natural hazards taking into account environmental and anthropogenic risks, and of using Complex Events processing.
