Source: MCCResources

EMYNOS will present its project results in front of relevant stakeholders including Spanish Emergency services, Madrid 112, Spanish National Police, European Commission, EU projects (NEXES), research institutes and actors from the industry.

EMYNOS (nExt generation eMergencY commuNicatiOnS), jointly with PSCE will organize a workshop on next generation emergency communications, to be held in the premises of the Spanish National Police on 27 November 2017 in Madrid. The project has entered his final year and will share its results with relevant stakeholders.

Current emergency systems and 112 services are based on legacy telecommunication technologies, which cannot cope with IP-based services that European citizens use every day. Some of the related limitations are the partial media support, the lack of integration of social media, and the use of an analogue modem for providing e-Call services with limited data amount. As most operators have started migrating towards broadband IP-based infrastructures, current emergency systems need also to be upgraded and adapted in order to fulfil regulatory requirements in terms of Next Generation emergency services.

It is in this context that EMYNOS started. The project is aimed at designing and implementing Next Generation platform capable of accommodating rich-media emergency calls that combine voice, text, and video, overall constituting a powerful tool for coordinating communication among citizens, call centers and first responders.

EMYNOS will present its results in front of relevant stakeholders including Spanish Emergency services, Madrid 112, Spanish National Police, European Commission, EU projects (NEXES), research institutes and actors from the industry.

Pease note that a hackaton will take place in parallel of the workshop and that results will be shared with the audience.
