in which the lock of Scheveningen breaks down due to bad weather conditions combined with technical failure, threatening a large portion of the city’s inhabitants and critical infrastructures. “Of course, the scenario we designed is more than unlikely to occur in reality, but this allowed us to maximise the use of the selected innovative solutions and involve as many organisations as possible in the Trial“ said Régis CE Flohr, Trial Director. As a flood of this magnitude cannot be handled by the Safety Region Haagland alone, Trial - The Netherlands involved many entities and organisations including the police, fire service, medical services, municipality, military, the water authority and electricity company, public transport as well as international organisations such as EUROPOL, EUROJUST and the International Court of Justice. The scenario was subdivided into two distinct phases (threat and impact) during which crisis managers had to optimise the use of the five selected innovative solutions at their disposal (3Di, ZKIKeepOperational, CrisisSuite, SIM-Cl, HumLogSIM). The threat phase was about planning and predicting the flood as well as the related cascading effects (evacuation planning, protection of critical infrastructures).
