Abstract

The contribution presents an application of information visualization techniques in emergency medical services process analysis. We used a novel combination of simulation approach and geographical information system technologies to model and present large volumes of different kinds of information. The suggested methodology was used to evaluate system readiness for a major incident and the capability of a region to absorb a large number of casualties depending on scenarios of possible incidents.
