INSPIRE contributes to the networking of innovative technologies for civil security. Existing solutions and potential new developments will be linked. The subprojects Social Media, Smart Home/Building, UAVs and Personal Flow Measurement provide examples.
INSPIRE follows the approach of open interfaces and uses free software. Central technical project results, e.g. INSPIRE.hub and INSPIRE.app are also provided as free software. The project is based on formal and informal standards.
INSPIRE will be established as a pilot project in Paderborn. This is used to demonstrate the project results practically and to test the usability practically. For this purpose, large events in Paderborn (e.g. football matches, folk festivals or music festivals) are used.
