Abstract

The importance of an appropriate training is widely recognized in the domain of emergency management. The goal of an efficient and effective humanitarian emergency response can be better pursued, if responders are appropriately prepared to address health, security and managerial concerns. In this paper we propose the adoption of augmented reality mobile interfaces to enhance the training efficacy for on-site crisis preparedness activities. The system we propose originated from the idea to allow trainees to exploit AR interaction and become quickly familiar with the mobile technology adopted today in emergency response activities.
