Abstract

The number of mass shooting incidents have shown an increase from 2000 to now. With the increased number in this type of incident the number of victims has also increased. Post incident analysis reports suggest improvements in situational awareness could have reduced the number of deaths during the incidents. The application extends primary triage as an input to situational awareness, use of heuristic methods for efficient search for victims and optimized route for reaching victims and extraction. This research also proposes an inclusive process of dealing with the incident starting from when active shooter is neutralized to the point when victims are extracted from the scene, from the viewpoint of Emergency Medical Services (EMS).
