​ESTG have 3rd year CS students working full time (32hrs/week) for 6 months (so 832 hrs total) on projects in teams of 3+. They need these projects to pass their exams & cannot work on commercial projects.

An 18-month project has been started to have Eden manage all the incidents within the limits of the ​Peneda-Gerês National Park. This has a core team of 10 students, 2 teachers & Antonio throughout the period.

This project is separated into three phases, with the goal of having Eden have all the info related to usage of the land, natural resources, infrastructure, demographic data, area mapping, hazardous, administrative land organization plans stored in one system that will be standard for all emergency services and local govt.

The goal is to have a better management of the area, to plan for emergencies, and have a more effective managment of all the resources, in order to prevent wild land fires, and have a better response in case of emergency.
