Integrated Resilience Assessment Platform

HARMONIA Decision Support System

IRAP supports three types of Decision Support Systems (DSS): 

• Multi-hazard mitigation & adaptation measures DSS:  is a risk-based approach DSS that identifies areas prone to hazards and prioritizes actions for risk reduction. It provides a list of mitigation measures and demonstrates preliminary improvements after implementation. Aims to enhance risk-awareness decision-making processes, reduce risk, and improve long-term performance.


• Urban planning application DSS: Utilizes a multiparametric risk assessment methodology for various urban perils to offer comprehensive urban recommendations for mitigating future hazard-driven adverse impacts. Provides situational awareness for better urban planning and specific geolocated measures to optimize urban planning processes and reduce risk in urban areas.


• Urban health & well-being application DSS: Provides estimates of health hazards of cardiovascular and respiratory diseases based on weather and air pollution in urban areas. Offers health awareness data to improve the management of health infrastructure and reduce health risks.

Integrated Resilience Assessment Platform (IRAP)

HARMONIA will leverage existing tools, services and novel technologies to deliver an integrated resilience assessment platform working on top of GEOSS, seeing the current lack of a dedicated process of understanding and quantifying Climate Change (CC) effects on urban areas using Satellite and auxiliary data available on GEOSS, DIAS, urban TEP, GEP etc. platforms.

IRAP will include the following features:

• Incorporates multi-disciplinary knowledge and assessments


• Addressing hazards connected to Climate Change (CC)


• Addressing geological hazards (geohazards)


• Identification and definition of intervention necessity indices
