3. Workshops and interviews

• Systems have to be applicable for daily work• Access to information at any time in any

circumstances• Reliable systems• Hesitations about responsibilities for (dynamic)

data management • Minimal requirements for advanced functionality• Advances visualisation is much more appreciated • Maintenance of ‘time’ is critical

The users

• Emergency response workers in the field, like police, fire brigade, ambulance, red cross;

• Decision-makers, responding to the event and coordinating the work between different teams;

• Consultants, giving advise on specific aspects and issues, for example type of explosives;

• Victims: serious injuries that will be transported by specialized transport or have to stay in locally organized first aid centers;

• Journalists;• General public
