CroMAR: Mobile Augmented Reality for supporting reflection on crowd management
CroMAR is a mobile augmented reality app to support viewing and navigating across information (e.g. social media, radio comm., photo and video feeds) generated during large public events (e.g. concerts, sports games, talks), directly in-space via an iPad interface. That information is intended to support and promote processes of debriefing and reflection of civil protection workers who are deployed on the field to operate as Coordinators / Disaster Managers. 

The use of CroMar is explained on the Regola posters shown at the year 1 review: Regola poster 1 and Regola poster 2

CroMAR is developed by NTNU, tested by Regola and Protezione Civile Torino
