ITU-T Study Group 16Question I

Use of public telecommunication services for emergency and disaster relief operations Addresses public telecommunication services that

authorities can use to communicate during emergency and disaster operations

Issues related to converging and evolving networks including traditional telephony and multimedia applications

Standards apply to international ETS traffic

Multimedia Services, Systems and Terminals

Study Items Identify organizations addressing the various aspects

related to telecommunications for emergency and disaster relief operations Define ETS capabilities drawing from user

requirements Study Group 2 and 16 will identify user requirements

for ETS capabilities Solicit input from administrations and disaster relief

organizations

Study Items (2) Working on security aspects for authentication of

users and prevention of interference (SG2, SG16, SG17) Spoofing, changing content, denial of service,

eavesdropping, with ETS traffic Defining terminology associated with ETS

capabilities for emergency and disaster relief operations

02-007.ppt

Specific task objectives Identify the ETS capabilities that are needed to fulfill

the requirements first draft January 2004

Liaise with organizations or activities responsible for addressing specific capabilities ongoing

Develop a system framework Recommendation identifying the components needed to support the ETS capabilities 2005

TDR Standardization Contributions submitted to several Study Groups to develop

Recommendations for ETS/TDR (2001) Need for improved coordination and liaison with other SDOs Experiences from the events in 2001/2002 Projects on Security (SG17) and NGN (SG13) ITU-T desire to develop a global and harmonized set of

standards for ETS/TDR Questionnaire on the use of public telecommunication services

for emergency and disaster relief operations (Telecommunication Standardization Bureau (TSB) Circular-132)
