Extreme weather, extreme data – challenges in fire brigade operations that we are tackling together. At the 75th annual conference of the German Fire Protection Association (GFPA, German “vfdb”), Dr.-Ing. Jens Pottebaum presented solutions from the EU project CREXDATA. For example, he demonstrated the use of AI surrogate models for on-site flood forecasting, which are being integrated in collaboration with FloodWaive. The data for this comes from both weather services and drones from the German Rescue Robotics Center (DRZ).
