Titel: Representation and Visualisation of Casualty Flows in Rescue
Operations
 
Abstract:
Effective tools for evaluating course of events from rescue operations
are invaluable. This thesis describes the development of such a tool
that enables dynamic specifications of rescue operation scenarios.
Scenarios are descriptions of rescue operations, which include the
geographical area and casualty flows. The scenario system supports
external import of scenario description data, as well as logged events
from operations. Replay of collected data is dynamically updated in the
scenario system, allowing both continuous overview of changes as well as
discrete snapshots of points in time. The system is implemented as a
plug-in module, extending the existing data analysis and visualisation
system MIND. The scenario system is explored using data collected from a
rescue operation performed in Alvesta, in 1997.
