Modern Equipment of the Polish SAR Service During a Real Rescue Operation in the Baltic Sea Taking Into Account the Recommendations of the 3-volume IAMSAR Manual
ABSTRACT: The article presents the legal basis for action and decision support systems of the Polish Maritime Search and Rescue Service. Based on the course of a selected mission, the actual actions were compared with the IAMSAR recommendations, presenting the ways of communication and the latest training techniques for saving lives.
Conclusions from the conducted analysis indicate that because of the knowledge and experience of rescuers the requirements for conducting a search and rescue action according to IAMSAR differ from the actual actions of rescue services.
