IBISAR
Service for real-time data ranking in the IBI area
for emergency responders and SAR operators.
How can we improve emergency response at sea?
-
IBISAR facilitates decision-making to Search and Rescue (SAR) operators and emergency responders.
-
IBISAR allows to identify the most accurate ocean current prediction in near-real time in the Iberian-Biscay-Irish (IBI) regional seas.
-
IBISAR contributes to maintain our seas and coasts safe and clean.
IBISAR helps to:
-
Improve Search and Rescue and pollution control operations
Minimize response time
Optimize search area planning
Allocate resources effectively

USEFULNESS OF THE COPERNICUS MARINE SERVICE
The Copernicus Marine Service plays a key role because it provides:
A single access point to a wide variety of data, which helps save time.
The access to different current predictions in the Iberian-Biscay-Irish regional seas.
The initial and boundary conditions to the coastal and regional models of the complementary datasets.
Near-real time observations for model data assimilation and validation.
Finally, this information is used in IBISAR to evaluate the performance of every model available in the Iberian-Biscay-Irish regional seas.
FACTS & NUMBERS
Effective response to emergencies at sea needs reliable observations and predictions.
The Copernicus Marine Service allows the access to a wide variety of data.
The key over-arching concern of the users is to know which prediction is the most accurate.
SAR operators need user-friendly automated system to evaluate the performance of the different predictions..
