About CRISP Project

The CRISP Knowlege Graph aims to establish the backbone of information integration for gathering Austrian infrastructure systems pertinent for crisis management. It offers a comprehensive and collective view of urban infrastructure, service networks, and diverse environmental indicators. CRISP KG is built on the foundation of three core elements: event of hazards, geographical regions, and infrastructure networks. These three elements are cornerstones of our crisis management framework and its functionality.

Crisp core elements

By connecting data on population, medical services, weather, transport, and utilities, CRISP KG gives users a way to understand how interconnected systems react to crisis and shock situations. The CRISP KG is currently undergoing active development; however, it is accessible through a SPARQL interface.

Some Statistics

6,375,118

Triples

Number of triples collected from different open data resources.

3,887

First Responders

Organizations involved in crisis management such as fire and police stations.

249,781

Observations

Observed values of properties associated with specific features of interest, such as communities or grid cells.

Resources

CRISP ingests data from multiple heterogeneous sources and creates a comprehensive and continuously updated data pool, which represents a key asset for semantic modeling and impact forecasting.

Hospitals

The list of hospitals in Austria is provided by the Federal Ministry for Social Affairs, Health, Care and Consumer Protection. It includes detailed contact information as well as statistical data on the capacity and services offered by hospitals.

Fire Stations

The list of fire stations currently includes the fire stations in Upper Austria. This list is contributed by the Fire Brigade Association of Upper Austria and includes the locations and contact details of the fire stations.

Missions

Missions are fire brigade operations in Upper Austria, providing information on mission categories, alarm levels, and location details.

Incidents

Incidents refer to severe weather events provided by the Austrian Weather Service (GeoSphere) through the VIOLA (Violent Observed Local Assessment) dataset.

Grid Cells

Grid cells are one square kilometer cells defined by the Austrian Central Institute for Meteorology and Geodynamics. All resources and network components in CRISP are mapped to these Grid Cells.
