Luce IT will promote the smart reconstruction of territories with the REMODEC project
At Luce IT we have extraordinary news to share with all of you. It is a milestone that not only fills us with pride as a team but reaffirms our commitment to using technology to solve real and critical problems in our society. We have been selected to be part of one of the most competitive and prestigious calls in the Spanish R&D+i landscape: the Science and Innovation Missions of the CDTI.
Our role will be decisive in the REMODEC project, an ambitious and necessary initiative that seeks to radically transform how we face, manage, and recover from natural disasters. Over the next four years (2026-2029), we will contribute our technological expertise to provide “intelligence” to emergency management, working side by side with industry leaders in a top-tier consortium.
What is the REMODEC project?
We live in a context where climate change has ceased to be a future threat to become a tangible reality. Extreme weather events, such as recent DANAs (isolated depression at high levels), large-scale forest fires, or volcanic episodes, are increasingly frequent and intense. Given this situation, the traditional response —reactive and often fragmented— is no longer enough. We need to anticipate, be faster, and above all, more efficient in recovery.
This is where REMODEC (Intelligent planning and comprehensive deployment for the rapid and sustainable reconstruction of territories after catastrophes) is born. The goal of this project is not just to rebuild what has been damaged, but to rethink how we plan and manage the territory to make it more resilient.
Imagine a system capable of coordinating in real-time the deployment of modular housing, the supply of clean energy and drinking water, and the reconstruction of roads, all orchestrated by an intelligent platform that optimizes every decision amidst the chaos of an emergency. That is what we are going to build.
A multidisciplinary excellence consortium
To address a challenge of this magnitude, collaboration is key. No single company can solve such a complex problem as comprehensive disaster management alone. Therefore, REMODEC is articulated through a strategic consortium that unites the best of each sector.
REMODEC is a collaborative project led by ARPA Equipos Móviles de Campaña that integrates the multidisciplinary experience of Luce IT, Sorigué, Estudio Metro7, Atbim, and Hidritec. Together, we form a strategic consortium spanning from construction and hydraulic engineering to artificial intelligence. Furthermore, to guarantee scientific excellence and technology transfer, the project relies on the special collaboration of reference research centers such as CARTIF and the Aragon Institute of Technology (ITA).
Each partner contributes a fundamental piece of the puzzle: from ARPA’s mobile teams and Sorigué’s sustainable paving to Metro7’s modular housing, Hidritec’s water management, and Atbim’s BIM digitization. And we, at Luce IT, will be the digital nexus uniting all these capabilities.
Luce IT’s role: The intelligent “brain” of the operation
Our responsibility within REMODEC is to lead the development of the artificial intelligence platform that will coordinate all resources in case of an emergency. If the other partners provide the “body” (infrastructure, water, energy), from Luce IT we will provide the “brain.”
In crisis situations, information is power, but excess unprocessed data can generate noise and confusion. Our challenge is to create a comprehensive intelligent system capable of:
- Planning and Coordinating: We will use multi-agent systems to dynamically manage critical resources. Where are more housing modules needed? Which roads are cut off and require Sorigué’s quick paving? Our platform will answer these questions in real-time.
- Managing Uncertainty: In a disaster, conditions change minute by minute. We will develop predictive models that allow logistics to be adapted on the fly, anticipating needs before they become bottlenecks.
- Facilitating Decision Making: We do not want to replace human experts, but empower them. We will implement Explainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI) systems that will offer clear and well-founded recommendations to those responsible for the operation, helping them make difficult decisions with greater safety and speed.
It is, in essence, taking digital transformation to the most critical terrain possible: saving lives and restoring normalcy to affected areas.
Acknowledgments and funding framework
We want to thank the consortium and public institutions for the trust placed in us. These types of initiatives demonstrate that public-private collaboration is the most powerful engine for building a safer and more sustainable future.
This project has been subsidized by the CDTI (Center for Technological Development and Innovation) through the “Science and Innovation Missions” call of 2024, within the framework of the Recovery, Transformation and Resilience Plan and is funded by the European Union – NextGenerationEU. It also has the support of the Ministry of Science, Innovation and Universities, contributing to the development of strategic technologies for territorial reconstruction and resilience.
We will continue to report on the progress of this exciting journey. At Luce IT, we continue working so that technology is always at the service of people, especially when they need it most.
At Luce IT we apply artificial intelligence and advanced data management to solve complex challenges, just as we will do in the REMODEC project. If you want to know how our solutions LIA (Luce Intelligent Assistant) and our Data Platform can bring intelligence and efficiency to your organization, contact us.
Frequently Asked Questions about REMODEC
What is the REMODEC project and what is its objective?
REMODEC is an R&D project funded by the CDTI that seeks to develop a comprehensive system for the rapid, intelligent, and sustainable reconstruction of territories affected by natural disasters, improving resilience through advanced technology.
