IREALP Research Institute for Ecology and Economy Applied to Alpine Areas Francesco Matonti European Satellite Navigation Competition 2010 Italian Regional Kick-Off and Navigation Workshop - 11 June 2010 Como (Italy) www.irealp.it IREALP is a research institute for mountain areas created in 2000 by the Lombardy Region. Irealp is a member of the Lombardy “Regional System” Chiuro (So) Milano Brussels HEADQUARTERS - Milano Marketing branch - Chiuro (Sondrio) Representative Office - Brussels European Satellite Navigation Competition 2010 Italian Regional Kick-Off and Navigation Workshop - 11 June 2010 Como (Italy) www.irealp.it The IREALP role Institutions and territory Connection between the institutions deep knowledge of the local area and of the Alpine area and the problems related. Participates, develops and coordinates research aimed at enhancing and protecting the territory. Institutions IREALP European Institutions Transversal Action from territory to Institutions IREALP Local Institutions Regional Institutions European Satellite Navigation Competition 2010 Italian Regional Kick-Off and Navigation Workshop - 11 June 2010 Como (Italy) territory www.irealp.it MISSION • To promote the technological and scientific research about economy and the natural environment, applied to alpine and mountain areas. • To foster the economic, cultural and social promotion of alpine and mountain areas, especially enhancing the different cultures and institutional entities that are active in the Alps. • To promote European and Lombardy mountains areas, as a new competitive territorial model, chracterized by an innovative context and a high level of quality life. In the near future IREALP will be included into the list of research institutes held by the National Ministry of Education (MIUR) European Satellite Navigation Competition 2010 Italian Regional Kick-Off and Navigation Workshop - 11 June 2010 Como (Italy) www.irealp.it • Territorial and Strategic Development Department (ASTS) providing support and technical and scientific consultancy to the different institutional entities present in the mountain area and fosters the improvement of the governance skills of those institutional subjects; providing support and technical and scientific consultancy to Lombardy Region in the implementation and organization of in depth studies, research and territorial analysis aimed at the identification of characteristics, features, potentials and criticalities of the mountain territories. • European and Regional Projects Department The area operates in the opportunities provided by both programs Territorial Cooperation (INTERREG) and initiatives to direct funding of the Commission (eg. Intelligent Energy Europe). All those projects refer to the general topic of the sustainable development of mountain areas. • GPSLombardia and Energy Department Manages and maintains the network of permanent GNSS stations. Collaborates and participates in all projects involving the use of technology, especially satellite technology for positioning and telecommunication systems and new experiences for the recovery and energy savings. • Marketing and Communication Department Promotes and disseminates the sustainable development of mountain areas, is able to support research projects and communicate through different communication tools. European Satellite Navigation Competition 2010 Italian Regional Kick-Off and Navigation Workshop - 11 June 2010 Como (Italy) www.irealp.it Features of IREALP • Deep Knowledge of the mountain area of Lombardy and of the Alpine Area • Links between National and European Institutions • Contacts and knowledge of territory • Contacts with Industry • Contacts with accademic world • Transverse action and meeting point between different institutional levels • Experience in the field of European projects European Satellite Navigation Competition 2010 Italian Regional Kick-Off and Navigation Workshop - 11 June 2010 Como (Italy) www.irealp.it The action of IREALP is mainly focused inside the Alpine Convention boundaries European Satellite Navigation Competition 2010 Italian Regional Kick-Off and Navigation Workshop - 11 June 2010 Como (Italy) www.irealp.it Our Partners National Authorities Local Agencies, Regional Bodies, Research Institutes International Contacts 1 The President of Irealp was elected in December 2008 as vice-president of the European Association for Mountain regions “ EUROMONTANA”, delegated for infomobility and energy. Euromontana has 68 partners from 17 European countries. The Vice Presidency is the result of the intense work of IREALP in European projects and the capacity of the Institute to develop relationships with institutions, local and regional agencies.

IREALP has developed a pilot project for localization using GNSS and GPRS technologies. ALPCHECK2 The project aims to create a transport model that covers the entire Alpine region. IREALP MAIN GOAL: make automatic the position and load status information and to allocate at best the freights on the free volume reducing the risk of ‘‘empty routes’’ . GPS 50% EMPTY VOLUME European Projects – 2 INTERREG IV A (Italy- Switzerland) PTA – ALPINE TECHNOLOGY PLATFORM Development of an OPEN TECHNOLOGY PLATFORM, able to provide services for multiple entities both public and private. A system which would allow the collection, analysis and processing of data to support strategies for LAND MANAGEMENT AND MOBILITY FLOWS over it. • We’ll set up a database of cartography with the same characteristics (ex. same reference system, same symbols etc.) • We’ll develop an open source system for the detection of mobility flows. Subjects will be monitored with a tracking system and wireless connectivity GNSS-GSM/GPRS to receive mobility information directly from dedicated facilities on the territory. European Projects – 3 INTERREG IV A (Italy- Switzerland) VETTA VETTA will develop a system that will meet the new demands of mountain tourism, IMPROVING SAFETY IN THE MOUNTAINS We’ll develop a system to take the BROADBAND CONNECTIONS ON REFUGE USING SATELLITE CONNECTIVITY. European Projects - 4 INTERREG IIIB Alpine Space ALPS-GPSQUAKENET The aim of the project is to build up a high-performance SPACE GEODETIC NETWORK of continuous GNSS receivers in the Alps. Projects in meteorological field, study and monitoring of landslides and seismic of the Alps were developed from the main project.
