In 2010, the Deepwater Horizon oil spill killed 11 workers, and caused massive environmental damage and major financial losses for the well owner, BP. In spite of such an obvious warning, many corporations continue to be unprepared for such a catastrophic event. ALTS Canada Inc. offers services to help companies to mitigate the risks of catastrophes through measurement, analysis, and training. In particular, ALTS Canada offers its clients the opportunity to prepare for catastrophe by training with simulated events. To provide appropriate feedback to clients, ALTS Canada needs to measure and analyze the performance of trainees during a simulated disaster scenario, i.e., how they use their time and interact as a team. They currently do not have this ability. The physical activities of personnel are a significant part of the measurement and analysis. Consider a command and control center that manages a company's response to an emerging crisis. The movement, activity, and interactions of personnel are an important indicator of their effectiveness. Boyd and his team have extensive experience tracking and analyzing human motion with video cameras and other sensors. Our goal is to bring that experience to bear on the measurement and analysis problems facing ALTS Canada. The target scenario is a corporate command and control centre that responds to a crisis by deploying and managing a variety of assets. This is a complex task that requires advanced planning and the coordinated actions of many people to be effective. In training, the crisis is simulated, but actions of the trainees are real. For the training to be effective, it is necessary to measure and analyze these actions. We will investigate the use of vision and other sensors for the measurement and analysis of human performance in the crisis training scenario.

2010年，深水地平线漏油事件造成11名工人死亡，给井主BP造成了巨大的环境破坏和重大的经济损失。尽管有如此明显的警告，许多公司仍然对这种灾难性事件毫无准备。 ALTS Canada Inc. 提供服务，通过测量、分析和培训帮助公司减轻灾难风险。 特别是，加拿大 ALTS 为客户提供了通过模拟事件进行培训来为灾难做好准备的机会。 为了向客户提供适当的反馈，ALTS Canada 需要衡量和分析学员在模拟灾难场景中的表现，即他们如何利用时间和团队互动。他们目前还不具备这个能力。人员的身体活动是测量和分析的重要组成部分。 考虑一个管理公司对新出现的危机的响应的指挥和控制中心。 人员的移动、活动和互动是其有效性的重要指标。 博伊德和他的团队拥有使用摄像机和其他传感器跟踪和分析人体运动的丰富经验。 我们的目标是利用这些经验来解决加拿大 ALTS 面临的测量和分析问题。 目标场景是企业指挥和控制中心，通过部署和管理各种资产来应对危机。 这是一项复杂的任务，需要提前规划和多人协调行动才能有效。 训练中，危机是模拟的，但学员的行动却是真实的。为了使培训有效，有必要衡量和分析这些行动。 我们将研究使用视觉和其他传感器来测量和分析危机训练场景中的人类表现。
