The scenario of the exercise assumed extreme weather events in the area (strong wind and heavy rain), which have resulted in the area being flooded. Civil Defense was activated and the evacuation of the site was decided, with the implementation of the SWIFTERS system. During the exercise, six UAVs (2 DJI M200, 1 mavic and 2 UAVs provided by DLR) where instructed via the intergrated SWIFTERS platform and the developed algorithms to scan the area and identify people. Cyprus Civil Defence gained situational awareness via the live-stream video of the six UAVS at all times, while the people detected where geotagged on the map. The participants had the chance to experience and get training on how to use the SWIFTERS platform. Additionally, they provided feedback, commented on importance and the usefulness of this platform for emergency response and shared their vision for expanding the platform to more tasks and utilising it for more applications.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"pg-w5efc7df85166b-1\"  class=\"panel-grid panel-no-style\" ><div id=\"pgc-w5efc7df85166b-1-0\"  class=\"panel-grid-cell\" ><div id=\"panel-w5efc7df85166b-1-0-0\" class=\"widget_text so-panel widget widget_custom_html panel-first-child panel-last-child\" data-index=\"2\" ><div class=\"widget_text panel-widget-style panel-widget-style-for-w5efc7df85166b-1-0-0\" ><div class=\"textwidget custom-html-widget\"><div id=\"grid-gallery-2-88114\" data-gg-id=\"2\" data-title=\"news2\" data-grid-type=\"3\" data-offset=\"5.3\" data-area-position=\"center\" data-icons=\"\" data-preloader=\"true\" data-width=\"215\" data-height=\"215\" data-padding=\"0\" data-quicksand=\"disabled\" data-quicksand-duration=\"none\" data-popup-theme=\"theme_6\" data-popup-type=\"pretty-photo\" data-columns-number=\"2\" data-popup-image-text=\"data-description\" data-popup-widthsize=\"auto\" data-popup-heightsize=\"auto\" data-popup-i18n-words=\"{&quot;close&quot;:&quot;close&quot;,&quot;next&quot;:&quot;next&quot;,&quot;previous&quot;:&quot;previous&quot;,&quot;start_slideshow&quot;:&quot;start slideshow&quot;,&quot;stop_slideshow&quot;:&quot;stop slideshow&quot;,&quot;image&quot;:&quot;image&quot;,&quot;of&quot;:&quot;of&quot;,&quot;prev&quot;:&quot;prev&quot;,&quot;cExpand&quot;:&quot;Expand&quot;,&quot;cPrevious&quot;:&quot;Previous&quot;,&quot;cNext&quot;:&quot;Next&quot;,&quot;cExpandStr&quot;:&quot;Expand the image&quot;,&quot;cRotate&quot;:&quot;Rotate&quot;,&quot;cDetails&quot;:&quot;Details&quot;}\" data-popup-slideshow=\"false\" data-popup-slideshow-speed=\"2500\" data-popup-hoverstop=\"true\" data-popup-slideshow-auto=\"false\" data-popup-background=\"\" data-popup-transparency=\"30\" data-popup-disable-history=\"\" data-popup-disable-changed-url=\"\" data-popup-border-type=\"solid\" data-popup-border-color=\"\" data-popup-border-width=\"\" data-popup-border-enable=\"\" data-fullscreen=\"false\" data-hide-tooltip=\"false\" data-caption-font-family=\"Default\" data-caption-text-size=\"140\" data-is-mobile=\"0\" data-caption-mobile=\"false\" data-hide-long-tltp-title=\"0\" data-caption-disabled-on-mobile=\"false\" data-responsive-colums=\"{&quot;desktop&quot;:{&quot;width&quot;:&quot;1200&quot;,&quot;columns&quot;:&quot;2&quot;},&quot;tablet&quot;:{&quot;width&quot;:&quot;768&quot;,&quot;columns&quot;:&quot;2&quot;},&quot;mobile&quot;:{&quot;width&quot;:&quot;320&quot;,&quot;columns&quot;:&quot;2&quot;}}\" data-popup-placement-type=\"0\" data-social-sharing=\"{&quot;enabled&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;gallerySharing&quot;:{&quot;enabled&quot;:null,&quot;position&quot;:null},&quot;imageSharing&quot;:{&quot;enabled&quot;:null,&quot;wrapperClass&quot;:&quot;

SWIFTERS participatd actively in MSE and organised a workshop on UAV swarms, performed a live exercise, and demonstrations of how the SWIFTERS platform can be utilised in emergency response.<\/p>\n<p>The SWIFTERS\u00a0 workshop included talks on the\u00a0UAV Regulatory Framework by the\u00a0Hellenic Police \u2013 Drone Division and on and how UAVs can be used for\u00a0Mapping and 3D Reconstruction by KEMEA. Additionally, the\u00a0Hellenic Fire Service and the\u00a0Hellenic Army discussed the first responder\u2019s needs and KIOS CoE presented how these needs are being\u00a0 addressed via the SWIFTERS platform.<\/p>\n<p>A live demonstration of the SWIFTERS platform took place with three UAVs on a search and rescue scenario. During the deomnstration the three UAVS were instructed via the platform to monitor a specific area in the conference venue to detect people and vehicles. The participants had the chance to experience and get training on how to use the SWIFTERS platform. Additionally, they provided feedback, commented on importance and the usefulness of this platform for emergency response and shared their vision for expanding the platform to more tasks and utilising it for more applications.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"pg-w5efc7df85166b-2\"  class=\"panel-grid panel-no-style\" ><div id=\"pgc-w5efc7df85166b-2-0\"  class=\"panel-grid-cell\" ><div id=\"panel-w5efc7df85166b-2-0-0\" class=\"widget_text so-panel widget widget_custom_html panel-first-child panel-last-child\" data-index=\"4\" ><div class=\"widget_text panel-widget-style panel-widget-style-for-w5efc7df85166b-2-0-0\" ><div class=\"textwidget custom-html-widget\"><div id=\"grid-gallery-3-10709\" data-gg-id=\"3\" data-title=\"news3\" data-grid-type=\"3\" data-offset=\"5.3\" data-area-position=\"center\" data-icons=\"\" data-preloader=\"true\" data-width=\"215\" data-height=\"215\" data-padding=\"0\" data-quicksand=\"disabled\" data-quicksand-duration=\"none\" data-popup-theme=\"theme_6\" data-popup-type=\"pretty-photo\" data-columns-number=\"2\" data-popup-image-text=\"data-description\" data-popup-widthsize=\"auto\" data-popup-heightsize=\"auto\" data-popup-i18n-words=\"{&quot;close&quot;:&quot;close&quot;,&quot;next&quot;:&quot;next&quot;,&quot;previous&quot;:&quot;previous&quot;,&quot;start_slideshow&quot;:&quot;start slideshow&quot;,&quot;stop_slideshow&quot;:&quot;stop slideshow&quot;,&quot;image&quot;:&quot;image&quot;,&quot;of&quot;:&quot;of&quot;,&quot;prev&quot;:&quot;prev&quot;,&quot;cExpand&quot;:&quot;Expand&quot;,&quot;cPrevious&quot;:&quot;Previous&quot;,&quot;cNext&quot;:&quot;Next&quot;,&quot;cExpandStr&quot;:&quot;Expand the image&quot;,&quot;cRotate&quot;:&quot;Rotate&quot;,&quot;cDetails&quot;:&quot;Details&quot;}\" data-popup-slideshow=\"false\" data-popup-slideshow-speed=\"2500\" data-popup-hoverstop=\"true\" data-popup-slideshow-auto=\"false\" data-popup-background=\"\" data-popup-transparency=\"30\" data-popup-disable-history=\"\" data-popup-disable-changed-url=\"\" data-popup-border-type=\"solid\" data-popup-border-color=\"\" data-popup-border-width=\"\" data-popup-border-enable=\"\" data-fullscreen=\"false\" data-hide-tooltip=\"false\" data-caption-font-family=\"Default\" data-caption-text-size=\"140\" data-is-mobile=\"0\" data-caption-mobile=\"false\" data-hide-long-tltp-title=\"0\" data-caption-disabled-on-mobile=\"false\" data-responsive-colums=\"{&quot;desktop&quot;:{&quot;width&quot;:&quot;1200&quot;,&quot;columns&quot;:&quot;2&quot;},&quot;tablet&quot;:{&quot;width&quot;:&quot;768&quot;,&quot;columns&quot;:&quot;2&quot;},&quot;mobile&quot;:{&quot;width&quot;:&quot;320&quot;,&quot;columns&quot;:&quot;2&quot;}}\" data-popup-placement-type=\"0\" data-social-sharing=\"{&quot;enabled&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;gallerySharing&quot;:{&quot;enabled&quot;:null,&quot;position&quot;:null},&quot;imageSharing&quot;:{&quot;enabled&quot;:null,&quot;wrapperClass&quot;:&quot;

The exercise was focused on presenting the work underteken by SWIFTERS and the latest updates of the project. The exercise was attended by more than 30 people, including the SWIFTERS project parterns as well as members of the Athens Police and other local authorities. During the exercise a swarm of four drones was instructed via the SWIFTERS UAV swam platform to monitor the area to search and detect people and vehicles. Live feed was provided by all the drones via the platform and the peoples and vehicles detected were marked on the map of the platform. The parterns of the project had the chance to get experiene and familiarise themselves with the platform which is being developed for the purposes of the project in action and provide feedback.
