Abstract:
The article is an attempt to present the aspect of modelling the system on the example of air maritime rescue interpreted as SAR service (Search and Rescue). The necessity and need for the existence of the SAR service results from the International Convention on Maritime Search and Rescue signed by Poland. An important element of the structure of the SAR service are its individual elements (eg. location of air bases, etc.). The time of arrival in places far away from the currently existing SAR air service bases is so significant that it may cause the failure of the action. The question arises whether increasing the number of airbases gives a chance to reduce the system's operating costs, increase its efficiency and thereby raise the level of safety at sea and in the area of responsibility of the SAR service. For the full analysis of the functioning of the SAR service it is necessary to undertake optimization studies. Due to the complexity of the SAR service, it should be considered in systemic categories. Authors interpreting aviation SAR service in the form of a system whose mapping is the SAR system model undertakes research aimed at optimizing the operation of this service.

Abstract:
The authors discuss currently conducted research aimed at improving the planning and performance of search and rescue (SAR) operations at sea. The focus is on the selection of surface units in areas of high traffic density. A large number of ships in the area of distress can make the process of selection of best suited vessels longer. An analysis of features which may render a vessel unsuitable for the job, depending on the area and type of operation, has been conducted. Criteria of assessment and selection of ships have been described, preceded by an expert analysis. The selection process has been made using Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA). The authors propose to apply officially available data from the Automatic Identification System (AIS)—a sensor for the ECDIS and other electronic chart systems—in the analysis of the availability of ships. Algorithms filtering available units have been built and applied in a simulation, using real AIS data, of one of the most common types of SAR operations. The method is proposed as an enhancement of decision support systems in maritime rescue services.

Abstract:
The analysis in hand provides a brief assessment of the United States’ and Canada’s marine transportation system and relevant search and rescue (SAR) support in relation to the Northwest Passage, with the purpose of examining to what extent these countries’ relevant infrastructure resources are able to meet the expected growth of shipping operations and business activities in the Arctic. Through an extensive literature review, this assessment will specifically describe the most important influences upon the maritime transportation system, with the issue of certain geographical details and the capabilities of existing ports standing out. Additionally, vessel activity trends and vessel traffic routing measure initiatives will be examined. Furthermore, the SAR infrastructure details and means to render assistance to people in distress along the Northwest Passage will be discussed. The reality remains that port characteristics are limited and vessel traffic routing measure initiatives and upgrades to SAR assets are commendable but slow-paced. It is true that both the United States and Canada are taking proper measures to build up infrastructure needs, but they both may run out of time to put adequate infrastructure in place to deal effectively with the changing environment.

Abstract:
In this paper is introduced the first proposal for development of Global Aeronautical Distress and Safety System (GADSS) in 1999 by the author of this article. The GADSS is de facto the integration of space (radio and satellite) Communication, Navigation and Surveillance (CNS) with Tracking, Detecting and Search and Rescue (SAR) systems, which have to provide airmen with global communications and locating networks. The GPS, GLONASS and other Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) provide precise positioning data for vessels, land vehicles and aircraft, but modern CNS demands need for enhanced services and augmentation of GNSS networks. Both networks have to be integrated under an GADSS umbrella with elements capable of being operated by any individual onboard aircraft to ensure prompt distress alert for SAR procedure. The enhanced concept of GADSS is that SAR authorities ashore and ships in the immediate vicinity of the aircraft in distress have to be rapidly alerted via radio and satellite communication systems and to assist in a coordinated SAR operations with the minimum of delay. In 2016, 16 years in delay, the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) has begun its process to amend international standards and recommended practices to align with GADSS concept. This paper will also introduce the necessary networks and equipment, which has to ensure harmonized and enhanced maritime and aeronautical global SAR systems.

Abstract:
Maritime search and rescue (SAR) plays a very important role in emergency waterway traffic situations, which is supposed to trigger severe personal casualties and property loss in maritime traffic accidents. The study aims to exploit an optimal allocation strategy with limited SAR resources deployed at navigation-constrained coastal islands. The study formulates the problem of SAR resource allocation in coastal areas into a non-linear optimization model. We explore the optimal solution for the SAR resource allocation problem under constraints of different ship and aircraft base station settings with the help of an enhanced particle swarm optimization (EPSO) model. Experimental results suggest that the proposed EPSO model can reasonably allocate the maritime rescue resources with a large coverage area and low time cost. The particle swarm optimization and genetic algorithm are further implemented for the purpose of model performance comparison. The research findings can help maritime traffic regulation departments to make more reasonable decisions for establishing SAR base stations.

Abstract:
In maritime search and rescue (SAR), commanders need to understand the task execution efficiency of each SAR unit in real time to improve the overall efficiency of SAR efforts. This study proposes a method to evaluate the progress of maritime SAR missions using automatic identification system (AIS) data. First, the positioning accuracy of the AIS data was improved according to the relationship between position, speed, and course. Second, the historical track of the SAR ship was used to generate the SAR completion area based on a line buffer algorithm. The SAR completion area and SAR mission area were then superimposed to determine the overall progress of the SAR mission. The proposed method has been deployed within the SAR software on-board Haixun01 (China's largest and most advanced large-scale cruise rescue ship) since 2017 and has played an important role in devising SAR strategies and tracking mission progress, during several SAR actions.

Abstract:
The evaluation and selection of Search And Rescue (SAR) schemes is one of the most important decision issues for maritime SAR. Owing to vague concept frequently represented in decision data, a group fuzzy multi-criteria decision-making approach is proposed to solve the SAR scheme optimal selection problem. In the proposed method, the experts’ opinions are described by trapezoidal fuzzy numbers, and the fuzzy Delphi method is adopted to adjust each expert’s opinion to achieve the consensus condition. By using the logarithmic least square method and trapezoidal fuzzy number arithmetic operations to estimate the normalized fuzzy priority weights, Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) is presented and consequently the consistency check of fuzzy judgment matrix is avoided. The results of simulation show that the method is flexible and credible and provides references in intelligent SAR decision-making.

Abstract:
Maritime search and rescue (SAR) operations are critical for ensuring safety at sea. Islands have been considered as feasible solutions for the construction of new maritime SAR bases to improve the capacity of SAR operations in remote sea areas. This paper proposes a new framework, based on island spatial information, for determining the optimal locations for maritime SAR bases. The framework comprises four steps. First, candidate islands for the construction of maritime SAR bases are selected. Second, the potential rescue demand is estimated by employing ship location data and marine incident data. In the third step, the response time from candidate islands to any site at sea is calculated, with explicit consideration of the impact of sea conditions on the ship’s speed. Fourth, the final island locations are proposed by solving the maximal covering location problem (MCLP). The proposed framework was applied to the South China Sea. The results showed that there would be a decrease of 1.09 h in terms of the mean access time for the South China Sea if the six selected island bases were constructed, whilst the primary coverage increased from 62.63% to 80.02% when using a 6-hour threshold. This new framework is expected to contribute to improvements in safety at sea and should be applicable to any sea area where the construction of island rescue bases is being considered.

Abstract:
The article discusses methods of ships assessment when determining their suitability for search and rescue action (SAR) at sea. Selection of the most preferable ships is one of the action planning elements. Due to various construction and equipment the civilian ships can only perform rescue task to a certain degree. According to the Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA), many parameters and data have to be compared in order to create a ranking of vessels ordered according to the coordinator’s preferences. When data are missing, incomplete or uncertain, a similar effect can be obtained using fuzzy logic. The author discussed the nature of the criteria, evaluation methods and presented a simulation of a ship study using fuzzy logic. The author developed fuzzy rules and presented the principle of operation of the controller. The article deals with the main principles of a decision support system (DSS) for the selection of ships in SAR operations.

Abstract:
Abstract The 2011 ‘Agreement on Cooperation on Aeronautical and Maritime Search and Rescue in the Arctic’ (henceforth SAR Agreement) is the first instrument of hard law produced by the eight states of the Arctic Council. While the agreement ostensibly addresses search and rescue related issues for the Arctic region, it is capable of being understood in a variety of legal, political and cultural contexts. Three elements are teased out in particular – the SAR Agreement as a legal policy document, as indicative of evolving Arctic international relations, and as indicative of particular geopolitical logics. As the paper concludes, however, the SAR Agreement has not been entirely free of political intrigue.

Full text
Abstract:
The work summarized in this report aims to investigate how a drone airplane design can be optimized to create a safer and more efficient sea rescue by providing staff with an early picture, performing search missions and aiding communication through visual contact. A flying wing is in theory one of the most efficient designs for a fixed wing aircraft, at the same time as it also offers high structural efficiency for its given size. In this report, an overview of aerodynamics, stability and flying quality for a flying wing is discussed and analysed. XFLR5 was used for this project, and a comparison between the analytical results and wind tunnel test data for a prototype was conducted. A strong correlation was found between the theoretical analyses and the wind tunnel data. A simple control solution using only one set of elevons has been proposed and simulated, resulting in Level 1 dynamic stability for all modes except Dutch-roll (where the drone’s damping is 𝜁𝑑𝑟=0.07 and the requirement for Level 1 is 𝜁𝑑𝑟=0.08). For the range of angle of attack used, the autopilot system will have to trim the drone in flight to achieve stability. As the drone only has one set of control surfaces there will be a loss of efficiency in this scenario, meaning that 𝐶𝐿/𝐶𝐷 = 15.7 for loiter speed of 15 𝑚/𝑠 and 7.9 for full speed at 35 𝑚/𝑠. In regular flight, with a total mass <1 𝑘𝑔, the drone is able to fly at full speed for 214 𝑘𝑚 or loiter for 6.3 ℎ with a battery package of 130 𝑊ℎ. As such, the objective of this project was achieved, and the proposed design met the given requirements.
betet som sammanfattas i denna rapport syftar till att undersöka huruvida ett drönar-flygplan bäst kan utformas för att skapa en säkrare och effektivare sjöräddning genom att ge räddningspersonalen en tidig överblick, utföra sökuppdrag och bistå till kommunikation genom visuell kontakt. En flygande vinge är i teorin en av de mest effektiva konstruktionerna för ett flygplan, likaså erbjuder den en hög strukturell effektivitet för en given storlek. I denna rapport diskuteras och genomförs en översikt över aerodynamik, stabilitet och flygkvalitet hos en flygande vinge. XFLR5 användes för detta projekt, och en jämförelse mellan analysresultaten och ett vindtunneltest med en prototyp genomfördes. I allmänhet är överenskommelsen mellan de teoretiska analyserna och vindtunneldatan god. En enkel lösning som enbart består av en uppsättning kontrollytor har föreslagits och simulerats, vilket resulterar i en Nivå 1 dynamisk stabilitet för alla lägen utom Dutch-roll, där drönarens dämpning är 𝜁𝑑𝑟 = 0.07 och kravet för Nivå 1 är 𝜁𝑑𝑟 = 0.08. Autopilotsystemet behöver trimma drönaren under flygning för att uppnå nödvändig stabilitet för det spann av attackvinklar som används, med endast en uppsättning kontrollytor, vilket minskar effektiviteten för BWB-drönaren till 𝐶𝐿/𝐶𝐷=15.7 för cirkuleringshastigheten på 15 𝑚/𝑠 och 7.9 för full hastighet vid 35 𝑚/𝑠. Drönaren kan flyga i full hastighet i 214 𝑘𝑚 eller cirkulera runt olycksplatsen under 6.3 timmar med ett batteripaket på 130 𝑊ℎ, med en vikt som är lägre än 1 𝑘𝑔. Målen med detta projekt uppnåddes och drönaren utformades enligt kraven.

Abstract:
The usage of autonomous vehicles is starting to appear in several different domains and the domain of public safety is no exception. Wallenberg Artificial Intelligence, Autonomous Systems and Software Program (WASP) has created a research arena for public safety (WARA-PS) to explore experimental features, usages, and implementation of autonomous vehicles within the domain of public safety. Collaborating in the arena are several companies, universities, and researchers. This thesis examines, in collaboration with Combitech, a company partnered in WARA-PS, how the implementation of autonomous vehicles affects the sociotechnical system of a search and rescue operation during a drifting boat with potential castaways. This is done by creating a case together with domain experts, analyzing the sociotechnical system within the case using cognitive work analysis and then complementing the analyses with the unmanned autonomous vehicles of WARA-PS. This thesis has shown how the WARA-PS vehicles can be implemented in the case of a drifting boat with potential castaways and how the implementation affects the sociotechnical system. Based on the analyses and opinions of domain experts’ future guidelines has been derived to further the work with sociotechnical aspects in WARA-PS.

Abstract:
Sjöräddning i Sverige sker genom samverkan mellan statliga verksamheter, kommuner och frivilligorganisationer för ett gemensamt mål att rädda personer som råkat i sjönöd. Tid är ofta en kritisk faktor i räddningsuppdragen men ett snabbt och oplanerat utryck riskerar samtidigt att sätta räddningsaktörerna själva i farozonen. Utvecklingen av obemannade autonoma farkoster för SAR (eng. Search And Rescue) ses som en lösning på behovet att kunna snabbt skicka hjälp till samt få ögon på incidentplatsen utan att försätta räddningsaktörerna för onödig risk. Nuvarande kommunikationssystem inom svensk sjöräddning kan dock inte hantera annan typ av information än muntlig varav räddningsaktörer endast känner till riktlinjer för hantering av muntlig information. Med ett framtida införande av autonoma farkoster kommer dock fler informationstyper att behöva hanteras i sjöräddningar varav oklarheten om vilka informationstyper autonoma farkoster samlar in och vilka datahanteringskrav som finns är problematiskt. Oklarhet om informationstyperna och deras datahanteringskrav är vidare problematiskt för utvecklingen och implementeringen av autonoma farkoster då risken finns att farkoster och tekniker utvecklas men inte får användas för att de inte är anpassade efter lagkraven på hantering av olika datatyper. I denna studie undersöks därför vilka informationstyper som autonoma farkoster kan samla in vid sjöräddning. Detta för att komma fram till vilka riktlinjer för datahantering som gäller vid sjöräddning med autonoma farkoster. Studien undersöker också vilka informationstyper som är kritiska för en SAR-sjöräddningssamverkan samt vilka informationsdelningsutmaningar som finns i dagens sjöräddning. Studien genomfördes i form av en kvalitativ fallstudie och har tillämpat ett socio-tekniskt systemperspektiv för att bättre se till helheten och besvara frågeställningarna. Resultatet av denna studie visar att autonoma farkoster kan samla in information om sin omgivning, vilket utgör grunden för att skapa en medvetenhet om situationen som är kritiskt för SAR-operationer, och kan även samla in information om sitt eget tillstånd. De lagverk som identifierats utgöra de huvudsakliga restriktionerna är kamerabevakningslagen, lagen för skydd av geografisk information, offentlighets- och sekretesslagen, GDPR och dataskyddslagen. Dessa lagverk innehåller riktlinjer för delning av information och personuppgiftsbehandling i SAR-sjöräddning. Kunskapsbidrag studien har genererat inkluderar bland annat identifiering av datatyper som kan samlas in av autonoma farkoster i en SAR-sjöräddning, och sannolikt andra typer av räddningsinsatser, och delning och hanteringskraven på de datatyperna i räddningsinsatser och därmed kunskap om vilka datatyper som är mest reglerade. Vidare kunskapsbidrag är kunskap om vilka informationstyper som är mest kritiska för SAR-sjöräddningar, och därför bör prioriteras att samlas in och delas, och identifieringen av utmaningar för informationsdelning mellan statliga verksamheter och frivilligorganisationer.
Maritime rescue in Sweden is performed through a cooperation between government agencies, municipalities and non-governmental organisations (NGOs) with the common goal of saving people in distress. Time is often a critical factor in the rescue missions but a fast and unplanned response may at the same time put the rescue workers in danger. The development of unmanned autonomous vehicles for SAR is seen as a solution to the need of being able to quickly sendhelp as well as get eyes on the scene of the incident without exposing the rescue workers for unnecessary risks. However, the current communications systems in Swedish maritime rescue are unable to handle any other type of information except verbal, meaning that rescue workers only know guidelines for handling verbal information. However, with a future implementation of autonomous vehicles, there will be a need to handle more information types in maritime rescue whereas the uncertainty regarding what kind of information autonomous vehicles collect and which data management requirements exist is problematic. The uncertainty about the information types and their data management requirements is also problematic for the development and implementation of autonomous vehicles as there is a risk that vehicles and technologies are developed but not allowed to be used because they are not adapted to the legal requirements on management of the different types of data. Therefore, in this study I examine what information types that autonomous vehicles can collect in a maritime rescue to find out what guidelines for data management that applies during a maritime rescue with autonomous vehicles. The study also examines what kind of information’s are critical for a SAR maritime rescue cooperation as well as what information sharing challenges exist in current maritime rescue. The study was performed as a qualitative case study and has used a socio-technical systems perspective so as to better see the overall picture and answer the research questions. The result shows that autonomous vehicles can collect information about their surroundings, which is the foundation for establishing situation awareness that is critical for SAR-operations, and that they can collect information about their own status. The main laws and regulations that have been identified as constituting the main restrictions are (translated from Swedish) the law of camera surveillance, the law for protection of geographical information, the public access to information and secrecy act, the GDPR and the data protection act. These contains guidelines for sharing information and the processing of personal data in SAR maritime rescue. The knowledge contributions of this study includes among others the identification of datatypes that can be collected by autonomous vehicles in SAR maritime rescue, and probably other types of rescue operations, and the sharing and management requirements on those datatypes in rescue operations and thus knowledge of what datatypes that are the most restricted. Further knowledge contributions is knowledge about which information types that are the most critical for SAR maritime rescue and thus should be prioritised for collection and sharing as well as the identification of challenges for information sharing between government agencies and NGOs.

Abstract:
Garantir elevados valores de eficácia das operações de busca e salvamento (SAR) marítimas é um desiderato essencial para as entidades responsáveis pela coordenação e execução das operações SAR, nomeadamente do Serviço Nacional para a Busca e Salvamento Marítimo (SNBSM) e da Marinha Portuguesa, em particular. A ocorrência de um sinistro, em que existe a necessidade de salvamento de um número elevado de pessoas, é definido por operação de salvamento em larga escala ou, através da terminologia inglesa, Mass Rescue Operation (MRO). Este tipo de sinistro possui caraterísticas específicas, sendo aquela que mais a determina, o facto de as capacidades SAR normalmente disponíveis pelas autoridades competentes, não serem adequadas para lidar com os efeitos do sinistro. Os sinistros com navios de cruzeiro são um dos casos de estudo mais importantes relativamente à condução de MROs porque, devido à quantidade de passageiros que transportam, podem assumir consequências elevadas. Um fator relevante para esta importância é o aumento de investimento em Portugal por parte das indústrias destes navios. Um bom exemplo é o Porto de Lisboa, que entre os anos de 2009 e 2015, contabilizou 2 243 escalas de navios de cruzeiros em que foram transportados mais de 3,5 milhões de pessoas. Utilizando dados provenientes do Automatic Identification System (AIS), tratados através de um protótipo criado em software Matrix Laboratory (MATLAB) é possível analisar as principais rotas de navegação dos navios de cruzeiro. Com estas, pretende-se calcular a vulnerabilidade dos navios de cruzeiro nas diversas áreas de jurisdição nacional. O resultado da análise dos dados com este protótipo é a criação de mapas de vulnerabilidade. Estes mapas irão fornecer uma forma de avaliar quais as áreas que merecem mais importância, por parte da Marinha Portuguesa (MP), em termos de busca e salvamento marítimo.
The efficacy of maritime search and rescue operations are a major concern for the authorities responsible for conducting those operations. A Mass Rescue Operation is defined as a rescue operation in response to an incident in which there is the need for rescuing a large number of persons in distress. In a MRO, the capabilities normally available to search and rescue authorities are inadequate to cope with the incident. Incidents involving cruise ships are a current source of concern regarding MROs due to the large number of persons carried, which may have high consequences. A relevant factor that explains this importance is the increase of investment in Portugal by the cruise ships industries. A good example of this investment is Lisbon harbor that accounted 2 243 scales of cruise ships between the years of 2009 and 2015, where were transported more than 3.5 million people. It is possible to analyze the cruise ships routes using data from the AIS system. This data is used in a prototype created with MATLAB. Data from the cruise ship’s routes are processed and analyzed to calculate the cruise ships vulnerability in the Portuguese maritime areas. The result of the data analyses process performed within the developed prototype is the creation of vulnerability maps. These maps will provide relevant information to evaluate those areas that should require more attention or concern by Portuguese Navy, in terms of search and rescue.

Abstract:
Maritime search and rescue (SAR) operation is a critical process that aims to minimize the loss of life, injury, and material damage by rendering aid to persons in distress or imminent danger at sea. Optimal allocation of SAR vessels is a strategic level process that is to be carried out with a plan to react rapidly. This chapter seeks to evaluate the performance of a SAR boat location plan using simulation. The proposed methodology in this chapter works in two stages: First, an optimal allocation scheme of SAR resources is determined via a multi-objective mathematical model. Next, simulation is used to test the performance of the analytical solution under stochastic demand. With the heaviest traffic and maritime risk, the methodology is applied to a case study in the Aegean Sea.

Abstract:
One of the methods for detecting and locating boats, aircraft, and people in distress are distress radio beacons or emergency beacons, which are tracking transmitters, like Emergency Position Indicating Radio Beacons (EPIRBs) that that interface with globally offered services of COSPAS-SARSAT, the international satellite system for search and rescue (SAR). These beacons can be activated manually, or automatically upon immersion, and send out distress signals, which are monitored worldwide and the location of the distress is detected by non-geostationary satellites, through trilateration in combination with triangulation with respect to the varying quality of the signal received. In this paper, an approach towards improving the EPIRB reliability is presented, through first analyzing and inspecting the level and amount of false signals received by the system; and then providing recommendations on how to deal with the issue, including the use of a device to monitor the alert release process.

Abstract:
The United States Coast Guard (USCG) Great Lakes Icebreaking Capability Replacement Project (GLIB) is a major acquisition program chartered to maintain heavy icebreaking on the Great Lakes. The state-of-the-art icebreaker being constructed under this program will replace the USCGC MACKINAW (WAGB 83), which has provided 60 years of continuous service to the region. The new multi-purpose vessel will provide heavy icebreaking services and maintain floating Aids-to-Navigation (AtoN) on the Great Lakes. In addition, the vessel will have secondary mission objectives of search and rescue, marine environmental response, and maritime law enforcement.

Abstract:
The purpose of this paper is to examine the feasibility of providing long-range search and rescue for personnel in the Barents Sea. This may be due to a helicopter ditching or accident while en route to or from an offshore petroleum installation in the Barents Sea or a maritime accident. The paper will propose a combination of a SAR helicopter and multipurpose emergency response vessels. The paper will illustrate improved search and rescue capacity both for personnel involved in the petroleum industry and others i.e., fisheries, maritime transport and tourism. The basis for this paper is petroleum exploration activity in the far North Eastern area of the Norwegian sector of the Barents Sea. The area is currently being evaluated in a process that most probably will lead to opening the area for oil and gas exploration. There is currently little or no infrastructure in the area beyond the coast. The paper considers a method to provide SAR coverage over a distance of 260 nautical miles with a minimum rescue capacity of 21 persons within two hours. Issues related to survival in cold water, immersion survival suits and performance requirements for search and rescue resources will be considered in order to provide an optimum combination and enhanced probability of survival if an incident should occur. Operational considerations involving departure criteria for helicopter transport should be developed in order to ensure that persons travelling on a helicopter to remote locations in the Barents Sea have a reasonable prospect of surviving a helicopter ditching and subsequently being rescued. Multipurpose Emergency Response Vessels, ERVs, equipped with dual Fast Recovery Daughter Craft, FRDC, capable of operating in an Arctic climate deployed at the remote location and en route together with an onshore based search and rescue, SAR, helicopter may provide a rescue capacity for 21 persons within 120 minutes. As vessels of the type proposed in this paper may be of a benefit to all stakeholders performing activities in the Barents Sea, joint venture financing by the authorities, petroleum, maritime, fishing and tourism industries could be considered.
