The Search and Rescue (SAR) application is a modeling effort that was conducted in conjunction with the development of the Coast Guard's Maritime Operations Simulation (MarOpsSim) tool. The main objective of the MarOpsSim project is to create an affordable, internally sustainable, simulation modeling tool which can be applied to multiple Coast Guard mission areas. This SAR application work supported the initial development of MarOpsSim and begins to address an identified lack of analysis tools available for conducting operational effectiveness studies in SAR. This work seeks to exercise MarOpsSim and provides a simulation baseline for conducting future SAR mission analysis studies. Results reported show that MarOpsSim can effectively be configured for the analysis of the SAR mission when detection capabilities, expressed as a lateral range curve, are assumed. |
