Training/Education
Course Management Systems
Petrochemical Training • Complicated • Expensive to build • Expensive to operate • Needed safety
compliance
Saudi Aramco Advanced Fire Training Center Ju’ayamh Ras Laffan Emergency and Safety
College
Realistic Complex Training Centers
Training/Education
• High cost safety compliance for command, equipment and training
• Multiple Sub-regional Shared Training Facility – including : – Fire/Police/Military (Reserves)
• Trend Fractured fire education (Diploma & Degree) to standardized – same courses & learning outcomes (FESHE) – Same entry requirements
• Less Training Deaths & Injuries
Technology/Delivery Systems
• Over 1,000 satellites orbiting
• Berkeley Scientists Say Time is Right for Fire Detection Satellite
• Already designed needs money
The pre-fire image (left) of the California Wallow Fire is a false-color Landsat 5 image acquired on May 14, 2011. The white puffy circles with shadows are clouds. The post-fire image (right) is a false-color Landsat 7 image of the Wallow Fire acquired on May 24, 2012.
The burn severity map of the Wallow Fire from the Monitoring Trends in Burn Severity project shows regions of high severity (red), medium (yellow) and low (green) burns. Monitoring Trends in Burn Severity. (2013, August- last revised).
