The document is the second deliverable of WP5: Integration, testing and evaluation of the SEDIMARK platform and reports the results of planning, execution, and evaluation of pilot trials designed to integrate the digital tools of SEDIMARK for urban and environmental management across Europe. Structured into six main sections, it provides insights into the project's objectives, methodologies, and outcomes.
The introduction establishes the purpose of the document, its relationship to other project tasks, and its overall structure. It sets the stage for understanding how the goals of the project align with broader work packages and outlines the document’s roadmap for readers.
The core of the document focuses on the refinement of trial definitions for the four distinct pilot sites, each addressing region-specific challenges.
The subsequent section delves into the integration of demonstrator systems at each pilot site. These systems are designed to interact seamlessly with the SEDIMARK toolbox. The integration of each trial is detailed, covering the systems used and their interactions, ensuring alignment with project goals.
Testing and performance assessment follow as critical components of the evaluation phase. Each pilot undergoes rigorous testing to ensure the effectiveness of the systems and their ability to meet predefined KPIs. The connection between the local systems and the SEDIMARK toolbox is emphasised as a key aspect of achieving desired outcomes.
The document concludes with a summary of the key findings and insights derived from the trials. This section highlights the challenges encountered, lessons learned, and actionable recommendations for future implementations. The project’s results serve as a foundation for advancing similar initiatives in other regions or sectors.
