Emergency Response
We aim to improve emergency response by developing the right tools for inspection of water defences, risk evaluation and solutions for flooding.
If our water defences do not operate as designed, we must take the right measures to prevent flooding of valuable areas. The Hedwige-Prosperpolder Living Lab offers unique possibilities to exercise emergency management in the event of calamities under controlled but realistic circumstances. Activities that are part of the programme are levee surveillance and monitoring, emergency response exercises, breach initiation and the large European exercise.
