Abstract :
The development of an advanced visualization and simulation tool for first responder exercises and education is presented. This tool exploits cutting edge computer graphics, physics-based effects modeling, virtual reality, and gaming technologies to establish a system that can eventually be used for the administrative planning and training of first responders in homeland security, homeland defense, and combating terrorism communities.
