European Crisis Management Ontology network

The European Crisis Management Ontology (ECMO) network is aimed at representing concepts for cross-sectorial and domain-specific crisis management, and mapping them to other relevant terminologies and standards.

Currently funded by the European Commission''s Health Emergency Preparedness and Response Authority (DG HERA), the project It is developed to support the European Crisis Management Platform (ECMP), initiative led by the European Commission’s Secretariat General to enable interoperability and harmonization across existing and future early warning and crisis management systems, such as DG HERA's Advanced Technology for Health INtelligence and Action IT system (ATHINA). The main aim is to ensure cross-sectoral information exchange and coordination during emergencies.
