Designing Emergency Management Training Sessions for C3Fire – Prioritization & Information Searching

Sammanfattning: C3Fire is an emergency management system. The purpose of this simulation system is to develop teamdecision making skills and to provide an opportunity for researchers to perform research in a controlledenvironment. Training is a crucial task for developing skills to tackle with emergency situation. Thepurpose of this thesis is to develop decision making by keeping focus on two major areas, namely;making prioritizations and information searching using UAV & Non UAV. Success of dealing withemergency management situation mostly depends on these training factors.The methodology which we adapt to achieve these two training goals are as follow; first we designtraining sessions based on the literature study and research work. These training sessions are fullycapable of achieving desired goals (i.e. prioritization & information searching). Finally we test thesession by playing game with the participants from the real life. In this thesis, theory part discusses literature about C3Fire and theoretical framework explains differentterminologies and methods used in emergency management. Training sessions and their analysis isexplained using theoretical framework. Better ways of communication and prioritization while takingdecisions in emergency situation are discussed.
