EUMAP
The eUMaP project aims to develop an open platform that helps local authorities manage and plan the demand and supply of essential utilities—energy, water, waste, and telecommunications—during quarantine or lockdown situations. Funded through a Research and Innovation Staff Exchange (RISE) programme, the project integrates Earth Observation data and open BIM technologies to map and monitor urban utility networks in five European cities (Rome, Nicosia, Thessaloniki, and Kaunas). The platform will be tested and optimized in pilot areas and released as an open-access tool to strengthen urban resilience and crisis preparedness.
GeoSystems Hellas (GSH) leads the spatial planning component of eUMaP, using 3D Earth Observation data to analyze utility sufficiency and demand during crises. GSH will enhance 3D city reconstruction tools, develop GIS applications to detect critical utility “hot spots”, and design an integrated spatial planning system to support sustainable and resilient urban utility networks.
The EUMAP Project is finished
This project is co-funded by the European Union’s Horizon 2020 – Marie Skłodowska Curie – Rise 2020 under Grant Agreement: 101007641.
