BMT Cordah Ltd, a subsidiary of BMT Group Ltd, has announced its latest software development the SARIS Incident Management System (SARIS IMS), a new tool to support the global Search and Rescue (SAR) community.
The SARIS Incident Management System (SARIS IMS) consists of three modules designed to ensure information flow and situational awareness during maritime rescue operations - the SARIS Information Management Module; SARIS Resource Management Module; and SARIS 4MC Module (for drift modelling).
The Information Management module manages information flow between casualty vessels, Maritime or Joint Rescue Co-ordinations Centres (MRCC/JRCCs) and Search and Rescue units, to improve communications between the emergency services.
In addition, the Resource Management module monitors the status and progress of search and rescue units to and from incidents, while the Incident Information Management module supports the operator in gathering and processing incident information.
SAR Mission Co-ordinators using the system are equipped with a visual picture of the situation on large wall mounted status board display systems, powered by individual workstations. Information has only to be input once in order to be disseminated around the system and analysed by the various modules.
SARIS was originally developed in 1996, in conjunction with the MCA, to enable the drift modelling of vessels, objects and survivors at sea following a maritime accident. The software is in use around the world by organisations ranging from the Royal Navy to the Hong Kong Maritime Rescue Co-ordination Center (MRCC).
The latest version of the software, SARIS 4MC will be fully integrated with the other modules and for the first time the drift calculations will be powered by the latest particle tracking algorithms.
