Evacuation plan software for cultural assets

The WALKER application is a software solution designed to support museums and cultural institutions during crises. WALKER helps create evacuation plans for cultural assets to better protect them from natural disasters, fires, and other emergencies.

It is based on an evacuation map format developed by the Munich County Fire Department and offers a user-friendly way to create evacuation maps that assist firefighters during evacuations. WALKER provides an accessible solution for establishing emergency planning in museums and other cultural institutions.

Benefits

With WALKER, museum security officers can provide emergency responders with concise information about objects that need to be saved. This enables them to strengthen their institution’s crisis resilience and protect cultural heritage from destruction.

Test installation available

WALKER is currently available as a prototype. If you are interested in a demonstration or a trial installation, please feel free to contact us.

We would be happy to advise you on creating route maps with WALKER.
