Progetto MISS
MISS project

English version:

MISS (Monitor Integrated Safety System) aims to develop an innovative platform to dynamically sense and predict natural and infrastructure conditions, so to improve safety and efficiency of transport operations in a multienviromental scenario. This project wants to increase citizens and operators safety by enabling a just in time intelligent computation of an open dynamic road surveillance network.

The platform will use advanced communication technologies for on-line services as well as high capacity storage devices for off-line services and applications, in addition to a new advanced algorithm to simulate risk assessment.

The MISS adaptable platform is a mobile system explicitly designed to monitor rough environmental conditions and it will be integrated with any pre-existing legacy system. It will enable intelligent exchange of structured information between the operational vehicles and the unified operative centre where information will be elaborated and actions planned.

The platform will be composed by two main components:

1.     an innovative on-board kit. It will be installed on the fleet cars and will include a black box, MSCU (MISS Storage & Communication Unit), where raw environmental and infrastructural data will be stored and then elaborated. These data will be then sent via a radio communication network to the Unified Operative Centre.

2.     an Unified Operative Centre (UOC) where data coming from distributed devices monitoring system will be stored and elaborated to find a strategy to improve end users safety.

Under the current practices, the survey and monitoring of environmental and infrastructural conditions it is committed to a number of various and independent subjects, that exchange information with each other by means of telephone and/or fax calls in order to establish the kind of needed intervention (and the relative priority) on the territory; such a method is  inefficient (who makes what?), dispersive (too many people involved in the decision making process) and unsuitable, and as a consequence often ineffective.

Further Miss aims at exploiting and consolidating the new standard TETRA.
