Abstract :
Although, robot technology is helpful in the mitigation of disasters and there are many examples of exemplary deployments after disasters in near future responder will not build up capabilities in this direction. Reasons for that are mainly economical aspects and limited technological maturity. One way to go around and to foster deployment in the field is to allow responder to timely request experts and robots from external institution. In this paper we motivated the development of such a model and pointed out the issue that have to be tackled.
