Today marks the start of the kickoff meeting for Minority Report: Mitigating Environmental Disruptive Events using People-Centric Predictive Digital Technologies to Improve Disaster and Climate Resilience.

Despite advancements in predictive digital systems, many urban areas remain vulnerable to disruptive climate events due to complex environments and data gaps. Minority Report aims to address these challenges by creating a people-centric technology platform that integrates:

• Innovative predictive digital technologies

• Rigorous models for risk assessment and categorization

• Advanced weather forecasting and early warning systems

• BIM, digital twins, monitoring systems, and DSS

• Energy simulations and AI-based behavioral models

• New approaches from SSH with over 20 co-creation events

• Deep renovation passports with multiple deep retrofit solutions 

The ultimate goal is to deliver a technology platform that supports a sustainable circular value chain for construction and renovation. This platform aims to improve climate change mitigation and disaster resilience with significant environmental targets: 70% energy savings, 30% carbon footprint reduction, and 60% environmental impact reduction.

The universal co-creation framework will be applied across three demo sites in Dublin (IE), Patras (GR), and Wellington (NZ). Each site represents distinct climatic areas and shares common and local challenges, providing valuable insights for broader applications.
