Climate change (CC) is triggering dangerous temperature increases, floods, droughts and fires in historic cities and their environments that affect citizens and Cultural Heritage (CH) health. In this context, green infrastructure (GI) emerges as a sustainable solution to mitigate the impact of CC and enhance urban livability. However, without studying the symbiotic relationship between CC and CH, GI expansion could affect the preservation of Immovable CH. To address the challenge of implementing sustainable policies to face climate change in Historic Cities, ATLAS employ interdisciplinary approaches and digital technologies for: 1) modelling the scenarios of CC risks in Historic Cities<\/strong>, 2) managing Immovable CH and GI and 3) predicting potential impacts. ATLAS tools based on satellite imagery, Geographic Information Systems, opinion of citizen managers, and human behaviour computational simulations<\/strong>, allow for assessing CC risk and looking for the best resilience solution. ATLAS municipalities managers will be enabled to identify and evaluate risks, understand human behaviour during emergencies<\/strong>, and minimise damage to Immovable CH caused by CC as pollution, urban heat islands, floods, and fires. ATLAS will conduct studies in five Historic Cities (Seville, Antequera, Valencia, Treviso, and Grenoble<\/strong>) in three European countries (Italy, Spain, and France) to validate these tools in various scenarios (Mediterranean, Mountain and Continental). ATLAS interdisciplinary team to design tools and ensure the functionality and usability, brings together: 1) universities experts in CH diagnosis and risk assessment (UPO, UNIVE), GI (UNIVE), and digital technologies for modelling risk management (UGA<\/strong>, UPO); 2) experts in CH Conservation (IVCR+i); 3) Hazard experts (Alpine Natural Hazards Center); and 4) municipalities of Treviso and Antequera. The beneficiaries of this project are citizens whose municipalities integrate ATLAS tools into their training programs, management strategies, and CC contingency plans to improve the citizen and CH resilience.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n
At UGA<\/strong>, we work on designing and implementing an agent-based simulator to assess coordinated response strategies in the case of a forest fire in the area of Grenoble (specifically the area around the highly wooded area of the Bastille, a popular tourist attraction that is an ancient fort and cultural landmark, including several important museums.). A particular focus in the modelling is given to modelling human behaviour of citizens in the area as well as the communication and response strategies of the emergency decision-makers. This will involve meeting with stakeholders (elected personnel, Grenoble Metropole, first responders) organised by our research project partner PARN (P\u00f4le Alpin Risques Naturels – a Public Organization for mitigation of risk in natural environments). The goal is to uncover the current protocols, procedures and evacuation plans, establish which communication actions between agencies are used to coordinate a response, and to assess what behaviours the local population would do in the case of a forest fire. These will then be implemented in a simulator in order to test different scenarios (uncontrollable fire, different response strategies, etc.) in order to provide a tool to local decision makers so that they can improve their management of such events.\u00a0 Ultimately the simulator will provide a method to assess the resilience of Grenoble to face forest fires. The work is highly multi-disciplinary since it involves an in-depth knowledge of multi-agent systems, specifically agent-based social simulation, cultural heritage, fire response strategies and basic fire progression models, policy and local governance, and social sciences (e.g. cognitive theories of behaviour).<\/p>\nMembers of the ATLAS Project:<\/strong><\/p>\nOrganisations:<\/strong><\/p>\nUniversidad Pablo de Olavide (UPO).<\/p>\n
