On occasion of the G8 Summit, the Italian industry provides the most advanced technologies and competences to guarantee the security of the event. In this framework the Finmeccanica Group will play a key role with its companies operating in the Aerospace and Defence sectors, by offering state-of-the-art products and systems to safeguard such an important global event and to give the meeting the maximum security and protection.
In the framework of the G8 summit, SELEX Sistemi Integrati, a Finmeccanica Group company, is prime contractor in the design and implementation of a new integrated system that will enable the Civil Protection Department to safeguard the meeting. Through various structures, directed from a Central Coordination and Management Station created by SELEX Sistemi Integrati, it will be possible to collect, analyse and coordinate all the data sent from the locations of the various resources deployed (Interior Ministry, Carabinieri, Defence Ministry, etc.) and from sensors installed for security purposes. At the Centre, there is also a Decision-making Room, equipped with sophisticated computer software capable of integrating all data for the management of possible events using resources on the ground. The system also includes several peripheral command and control centres, which interact with the Central Management Station.
