Calliope, funded by the Ministry of Enterprise and Made in Italy (MIMIT), starts from an important premise: health understood as a balance between the conditions of human beings, the environment and the animal world. This is the “One Health” approach codified by the World Health Organization.
\nThanks to the innovative “one health” approach, the project will make it possible to make a qualitative leap in ecosystem monitoring using the most advanced technologies.<\/p>\n
Calliope intends to build a structure capable of providing translational research results in the field of One Health and disseminating them both from an educational and public communication point of view, taking advantage of the support of emerging IoT and 5G technologies. The results of the research will be exploited through technology transfer structures in co-design with national and international industrial realities. The ambition is to become the first One Health observatory in Europe starting from the incubation of innovative solutions in the various areas, within 24 months of the start of the project activities. <\/p>\n
The project is coordinated by the Municipality of Taranto and involves among the partners: Polytechnic University of Bari, Meditech – Competence Center, DTA Aerospace Technology District scarl and ITS Logistica Puglia to which are added twenty other partners including universities, companies, regional agencies and third sector bodies.<\/p>\n
Calliope will last two years and will allow it to enter the national network of technology manufacturers spread throughout the boot and intercept European, ministerial and regional funds. Calliope will not only be a mass of useful information to guide the choices of the administrations involved, but outputs and research experiences that will have important economic repercussions and multiply the effects of the resources invested. <\/p>\n
\nIn this scenario, Exprivia experimented for the first time with a drone flight in an urban area equipped with a proprietary sensor that transmitted data every 20 seconds relating to the level of fine particulate matter in the area of the port of Bari to concretely measure air quality.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
The task is to provide a monitoring platform for the Smart City by acquiring the flight data of the mission and at the same time verifying the exceeding of the sensor thresholds in order to collect data and give a meaningful representation of the state of air pollution during the mission, to contribute to the healthiness of our cities.<\/p>\n<\/div>
