Description

In the night of Tuesday, 29.8.2023, a fire had started in an approx. 40 m high grain silo in Wesselburen (Dithmarschen district). The silo was filled with about 30 tons of grain. The temperatures in the silo were estimated to be between 600 and 700 degrees. Approximately 200 firefighters were involved in the very difficult firefighting operation until 1.9.23. Smoldering fires were smothered by the use of nitrogen.

While hundreds of helpers were in action at a silo fire in Wesselburen, a second silo fire was added on Wednesday, 8/30/2023. In Neumünster, an oat silo was on fire.

Already on July 31, 2023, there was a large-scale operation for more than 200 firefighters from the Duchy of Lauenburg district and the Hamburg professional fire department: a 37-meter-high silo tower on the outskirts of Brunstorf with 200 tons of different types of grain had caught fire.
What was the overall goal of the Use Case?
Analyze special incidents to learn from them for the development or optimization of SOPs (standard operational procedures) and planning of interventions.
What worked well and could be recommended to others?
In X (formerly Twitter), the information was available quickly. This contributed significantly to a real-time situational picture and helped to "get ahead of the situation". By evaluating the image and video data on the web, the tactics for silo fires can be updated.
What limitations were identified?

The evaluation of social media is currently not an SOP.

The incident commanders travel to the scene and after reconnaissance define the tactics on the spot. However, during the travel and the reconnaissance, important information is already available in social media, which would be helpful to the incident commander's decisions.
Which social media and crowdsourcing technologies were used?
Which social media platforms were used?
Which hashtags or keywords were used?
#Wesselburen, #Getreidesilo
