This video shows a field test conducted as part of the BRIDGE Alpine ValEDation Days, the first in the series of three Validation, Exploitation and Dissemination events organised in autumn 2014. These events are intended to demonstrate solutions for large-scale crisis management and bring them closer to the user.

The validation part of the Alpine ValEDation Days was conducted on 9 September 2014 in St. Gilgen, Austria, in cooperation with the volunteer fire service of St. Gilgen/Löschzug Winkl and the local police. Two BRIDGE systems – Advanced Situation Awareness (ASA) and Help Beacons – were demonstrated and validated during the exercise organised by the Winkl fire service, which simulated a car accident with a subsequent fire and an explosion. Four volunteers acted as victims in this hypothetical scenario that had been pre-tested in August 2014.
