Exercise: Final Demonstration of the RESITEK Project in Altenahr

On June 20, 2026, the closing demonstration of the RESITEK project ("Resiliente Technologien für den Katastrophenschutz") took place on the former soccer field in the municipality of Altenahr in the district of Ahrweiler.
The goal of the RESITEK project is to bring together the expertise and technological capabilities of the German Aerospace Center (DLR) in the fields of aviation, space, energy, transportation, and security. As part of the project, a modular and flexibly expandable data and visualization platform is being developed that enables both continuous situation monitoring and needs-based support for situation assessment, mission planning, and mission execution in the event of a disaster. This is intended to strengthen the decision-making and operational capabilities of authorities and organizations responsible for security, enabling them to manage hazardous situations more efficiently and effectively protect the public.
