ABSTRACT:
An electronic accountability apparatus for use by an incident manager in the timing and tracking of multiple teams of personnel and equipment, such as in a fire fighting operation. The apparatus includes a timing system for tracking and selecting active teams and timing their task times, including monitoring the use of supplementary breathing apparatus as required. The apparatus also includes a tracking system to monitor the movement of active teams through various zones of a building, including the ability to determine the hazardous or hot zones, the current location of active teams, and the past locations of current teams. The data that is generated from the above "events" such as active team assignments, time in intervals, zone movement etc. are all stored in the battery backed up RAM that can be downloaded to a personnel computer to provide a complete history of the operation.
