A consortium that includes the Environment Regulatory Research Group was awarded approximately EUR 9 million to undertake the D-BOX project: a humanitarian demining tool-box for large scale clearing of areas from anti-personnel landmines and cluster munitions. The D-BOX project intends to address the pressing issue of the clearance of anti-personnel land mines and cluster munitions left behind from armed conflicts, in a comprehensive and innovative approach. This should be achieved by developing  innovative easy-to-use, cost-effective solutions, contained in a comprehensive toolbox. The toolbox will be connected to real equipment and systems (ground biosensors, satellites, autonomous platforms, and command and control infrastructure) that will feed the toolbox with dynamic information such as position and type of mines coming from sensor measurements or human sources. This “dynamic knowledge” will provide the situation awareness and control necessary to prevent and manage a specific risk for demining teams and population through real time Geographic Information Systems. ERRG’s role on the project is to develop legal and ethical tools for the design and deployment of the toolbox.
