In the project, Infosim® worked together with the leading telecommunications companies Verizon, MTN, Orange, NTT, Intersec, Cognizant, Antel, Celfocus, Chunghwa Telecom, ESRI, Futurewei, TIM and UBiqube to develop a virtual command center (VCC) for disaster management.
Disaster recovery – a matter of life and death
In the event of a disaster or emergency, every second counts. Unrestricted, global insight into critical infrastructures and resources as well as resilient communication channels are essential to effectively coordinate search and rescue activities and minimize the impact of a crisis as much as possible.
This Catalyst aims to improve disaster & crisis management through the development of a Virtual Command Center (VCC). Through the use of autonomous networks, artificial intelligence (AI) and digital twins, the project seeks to optimize resource allocation and operational efficiency during crises such as natural disasters and conflicts.
The VCC is intended to provide a central management point that can be used to monitor all critical infrastructure and resources in the event of an emergency or disaster, allowing decisions to be made quickly and efficiently.
Infosim® brought its more than 20 years of experience and expertise in the field of network monitoring, inventory and fault management to the Catalyst to ensure holistic network transparency and optimal performance.
"This project as well as the previous Catalysts have proven the adaptability and scalability of our automated network and service management solution StableNet® by successfully integrating with TM Forum API’s as well as various third party systems and vendors." – Dr. Stefan Köhler, CEO at Infosim®.
Service Assurance Dashboards from StableNet® have been used to display overall performance information as well as logical 3D topology views to monitor, visualize and analyze service conditions.
Infosim® builds on past successes
"We are delighted to receive this year’s Catalyst award, which not only underlines the relevance of the topic and the successful implementation of the project, but also the outstanding teamwork behind it.
