IAMSAR Manual Volume I, 2013 Edition

 
Organization and Management (Volume I) discusses the global SAR system concept, establishment and improvement

of national and regional SAR systems and co-operation with neighboring States to provide effective and economical SAR services.

- Chapter 1 presents an overview of the SAR concept, including what is involved in providing SAR services, and why such services are required and beneficial. The SAR system is examined from a global, regional and national perspective.

- Chapter 2 introduces some of the key components of the SAR system. These include communications, rescue co-ordination centres and sub-centres, operational and support facilities and the on-scene co-ordinator.

- Chapter 3 considers the use of training, qualification, and certification processes to develop professionally competent SAR personnel. A number of aspects of training and of exercises used for training, are examined in detail.

- Chapter 4 describes the communications needs of the SAR organization for reception of distress alerts and for supporting effective co-ordination among the various components of the SAR system.

- Chapter 5 provides an overall management perspective of the SAR system.

- Chapter 6 discusses the necessary factors and recommends some techniques for creating an organizational environment that fosters improvement of services.

It has been updated from earlier editions by including the amendments that were adopted by the seventy-fourth session of the IMO Maritime Safety Committee in June 2001 (which entered into force on 1 July 2002), by the seventy-fifth session in May 2002 (which entered into force on 1 July 2003), by the seventy-seventh session in June 2003 (which entered into force on 1 July 2004), by the seventy-eighth session in May 2004 (which entered into force on 1 July 2005), by the eightieth session in May 2005 (which entered into force on 1 June 2006), by the eighty-first session in May 2006 (which entered into force on 1 June 2007) and by the eighty-third session in October 2007 (which entered into force on 1 June 2008).

This new edition includes the 2008 amendments, adopted by the eighty-fifth session of the IMO Maritime Safety Committee in November–December 2008, which entered into force on 1 June 2009. The amendments were prepared by the ICAO/IMO Joint Working Group on Harmonization of Aeronautical and Maritime Search and Rescue at its fourteenth session, in September 2007, and were endorsed by the IMO Sub-Committee on Radiocommunications and Search and Rescue (COMSAR) at its twelfth session, in April 2008. It should be noted that volume I was not amended in 2009. 

IAMSAR Manual Volume II, 2013 Edition

Mission Co-ordination (Volume II) assists personnel who plan and co-ordinate SAR operations and exercises.

- Chapter 1 presents an overview of the SAR system concept, including what is involved in providing SAR services, and why such services are required and beneficial. The SAR system is examined from a global, regional, and national perspective. Key components of the SAR system, such as rescue coordination centres (RCCs), operational and support facilities and the on-scene co-ordinator (OSC), are discussed.

- Chapter 2 focuses primarily on SAR communications topics. These include distress communications, emergency beacons, communications for SAR operations and a variety of communications and safety systems related to or used by the SAR system.

- Chapter 3 introduces the five stages through which responses to SAR incidents typically progress, describes the three emergency phases (Uncertainty, Alert, and Distress) and the first two stages (Awareness and Initial Action) in detail, and provides additional valuable guidance for the early stages of a SAR incident.

- Chapter 4 contains a detailed discussion of the theory and practice of search planning. It presents a complete yet practical application of search theory to the SAR search planning problem. It provides guidance for balancing the conflicting goals of covering large areas with limited facilities or using those facilities to achieve high probabilities of detection in small areas. The procedures outlined allow the search planner to determine the optimal area to search so that the chances of success are maximized.

- Chapter 5 discusses search techniques and operations, including search facility selection, assessment of search conditions, search pattern selection for visual, electronic, night and land searches, search sub-area assignments, standard methods for designating and describing search sub-areas, planning of on-scene co-ordination, and finally compiling all this data into an attainable search action plan.

- Chapter 6 describes aspects of rescue planning and operations such as logistics, modes of rescue, care and debriefing of survivors, handling of deceased persons, and certain special requirements involving aircraft crash sites.

- Chapter 7 contains guidance for emergency assistance other than SAR in which the SAR system may become involved.

- Chapter 8 discusses the orderly conclusion of SAR operations. The topics covered include closing of SAR cases, suspending search operations, reopening a suspended SAR case, completing final reports, conducting performance improvement reviews and case studies, and archiving SAR case files.

- An extensive set of appendices is provided. These contain useful information, forms, checklists, step-by-step procedures, worksheets, and tables and graphs appropriate for daily use by RCC staff.

About IAMSAR

The primary purpose of the three volumes of the International Aeronautical and Maritime Search and Rescue Manual (IAMSAR Manual) is to assist States in meeting their own search and rescue (SAR) needs, and the obligations they accepted under the Convention on International Civil Aviation, the International Convention on Maritime Search and Rescue and the International Convention for the Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS). These volumes provide guidelines for a common aviation and maritime approach to organizing and providing SAR services. States are encouraged to develop and improve their SAR services, co-operate with neighboring States and to consider their SAR services to be part of a global system.Each volume of the IAMSAR Manual is written with specific SAR system duties in mind, and can be used as a stand-alone document, or, in conjunction with the other two Manuals, as a means to attain a full view of the SAR system.
