Zusammenfassung
Emergencies is most probably the highest important issue at the European and, of course, at the International level, in terms of impacts to the economic structures, the ecosystem, the human and the environmental resources. A number of emergencies has been identified within the Emergency Management Area and the areas under coverage could be summarised to forest fires, chemical fires, structural fires, industrial accidents, oil and chemical spills, explosions, nuclear accidents, radiation, storms, tornadoes, floods, dam ruptures, marine algal blooms, avalanches, landslides, earthquakes, seismic waves, volcanic eruptions. Environment Emergency Management Systems (EEMS) in Europe should be harmonised in a way, where developments will proceed through a consensus mechanism, between the industry, the users and the standardisation organisations, to create a consensus approach, by identifying best practice cases in the management, planning and operational aspects of the emergency situations, identify proper technological breakthroughs within the Telematics Programme, identify techniques and developments within other Commission initiatives, national and Regional programmes and projects, and develop scenarios for harmonisation, standardisation and focus for the future and the 5'11 Framework Prggramme.
