The project began in December 2011 with a planned duration of 30 months. One of the first tasks was to identify end users’ requirements from three aspects: technical, organizational and legal. The purpose of this task was to acquire an accurate view of the needs from potential future clients who will use the services offered by the GERYON platform for emergency communications, because close interaction with end users is a fundamental tool for defining the specifications of individual projects.

Having successfully collected these system requirements, the project partners are completing a definition of the overall system architecture and specifications of the various system components and modules.
