Second TRADR Joint Exercise
From May 18th to 22nd the second TRADR Joint Exercise took place at Phönix West, which is the ruin of an old furnace in Dortmund, Germany. The exercise was conducted in cooperation with the TRADR partners and firefighters from the Institut fur Feuerwehr und Rettungstechnologie Dortmund. The goal was to test the system components and run the system at a field location (as opposed to a more controlled lab environment). Useful data was collected and component level experiments were run. The use cases that were tested consisted of multiple asynchronous sorties as part of a large-scale dynamic disaster.

TRADR Dissemination Event 2014
A talk and a demonstration of “SAR drones with different sensors” was given at the recent meeting of the VRGeo consortium in Sankt Augustin on December 9 and 10, 2014. Their main goal is the development and evaluation of interactive hardware and software technologies for visualization systems in the oil and gas industry. The participants were impressed of the experience with highly mobile visual sensors, including laser scanner and thermal imaging. The demonstration was based on the NIFTi UAV, which was developed at Fraunhofer IAIS during the NIFTi project, and on the AscTec Pelican, which is currently used as a development platform in the TRADR project.
