Abstract

We present a prototype of the POLINT-112-SMS system intended to support information management and decision making in emergency situations. The system is able to interpret short message service (SMS) texts, and understands and processes information provided by the human user. We present the project’s specific development methodology and the main modules of the system: SMS gate, NLP Module (processing Polish), Situation Analysis Module (SAM), Dialogue Maintenance Module (DMM), Visualizing Module (VIS) as well as some resources developed within the project (PolNet).
