چکیده
Nationwide, one rescue worker is lost for every two victims rescued in collapsed structure situations; following Sept. 11, 2001, this ratio fell to 1:1. Limited physical facilities are available for training rescue workers in collapsed structure rescue. Our idea is to develop a training game for teaching collapsed structure rescue skills to members of emergency response community. In order to provide the most effective training possible, we plan to develop a scenario generator using AI planning techniques. The trainee will specify which skills they want to train, and the game will create a unique scenario that containing the appropriate challenges.
