The range of tasks for Search And Rescue (SAR) services is very comprehensive and requires extensive experience in addition to detailed knowledge. Actual and extended incident data, tactical information and technical knowledge are significant issues in this field. Within research projects information systems are designed to provide relevant information with the required/desired detail depth to the individual user groups. Mobile information processing instruments in combination with an internet based access to a modular knowledge database are predestined to improve the handling of emergencies as well as the data management for operation controls and fire-fighting forces. Emerging data transfer technologies like UMTS as well as WLAN are applied in order to access the database independent of the location. Semantic methods provide new possibilities to interlink information which accelerates the data preparation and retrieval. This paper describes the information and knowledge availability and adaptation.
