nora emergency call app

nora – the emergency call app system

nora Notruf-App

nora is the official emergency call app of the German federal states. In collaboration with the Ministry of Interior of the State of North Rhine-Westphalia, which handles all matters relating to the emergency call app on behalf of all federal states, we have developed an emergency call system that makes it possible to initiate emergency calls using a mobile app. Just like phoning the emergency call numbers 110 and 112, but without the need to speak.

nora connects persons seeking assistance directly with the responsible local emergency control centre for the police or the fire and rescue service.

We love mastering complexity. That is why nora is a typical bevuta project. Stringent requirements for data protection, IT security and functionality entail an extraordinary technical complexity.

At the same time, the app emergency call must be easy to use – particularly for target groups that may have hearing or speech impairments.

The nora mobile app runs under Android and iOS. To complement the end-user apps, the emergency call app system also comprises a browser-based web app for emergency control centres so that control centre operators can efficiently handle emergency calls received via nora.

Having been rolled out in 2021, nora is constantly being further developed. Future expansion stages will add additional functionalities, for instance linking nora to the emergency dispatch systems used by the control centres.

Collaboration on JUICE

The ESA mission JUICE (JUpiter ICy moon Explorer) is scheduled to start in 2022 to investigate important questions concerning the nature and formation of the Jupiter system. The special focus of this mission is on the water, methane and carbon oxide resources of the Jupiter moons Ganymede, Callisto and Europa. Aided by the Max Planck Institute for Solar System Research two essential measuring instruments, the submillimeter-wave instrument (SWI) and the particle environment package (PEP) are being developed to examine chemical compounds. We work together with the Max Planck Society on the SWI, to integrate it with the satellite bus.

Collaboration on ConEd

ConEd (Conceptual Engineering Editor) is a new, efficient way to calculate the statics of buildings. The implementation is made in Allegro Common Lisp. The ease of handling and its efficiency are the key factors for the civil engineer. We assist Eisfeld Ingenieure AG with this project.The result of this is the software ConEd, which works the way engineers think. As a consequence, engineers not only work faster, but less error-prone, too. With ever shorter design processes this becomes increasingly important. ConEd is intuitive and easily operated without having to go through a long and time-consuming training period.

Pepa - Open Source DMS

Pepa is a document management system (DMS) and our foremost open source project. Its main purpose is archival of documents.

Upload a PDF via the browser, send it via email or print right into the system. Text will be extracted via OCR and individual pages will be rendered as images so that you can view them right in your browser when searching the archive. That way, all documents are available in digital form so that you don't need to keep as much paper anymore.

Both the Pepa server and web client are implemented in Clojure. Thus Pepa is platform independent, you can use it with any operating system of your choice.
