Description
These MODEX exercises have an integrated approach for specialised modules and other response capacities to respond to consequences of serious structure collapse mainly due to the strong earthquakes when USAR modules are essential. EU MODEX field exercises are opportunities for testing coordination, interoperability, self-sufficiency, standard operating procedures, communication and reporting of response teams and equipment.
