Software Focus: Incident Commander




INCIDENT COMMANDER:A CRISIS TRAINING SIMULATION
http://www.incidentcommander.net/

Don't wait for a critical incident to discover what you don't know about crisis management.
The day after is one day too late.

Incident Commander is a PC-based software simulation that models real-world situations within a community, allowing for training at the management level to a critical incident.

The simulation offers a realistic representation of crisis management with realistic scenarios, realistic time delays and realistic resource limitations all set in the arena of the players' local region.

Focusing on smaller (less than 500,000 residents) jurisdictions, players can experience a school hostage situation; a natural disaster and a possible terrorism incident, while you fill the shoes of the "incident commander" and his or her Operations team.

Multiple simultaneous roles for player interaction will be available allowing independent action in any role or as a part of a group of players over the Internet or on a local network. Solo play is also possible.

The manufacturer also has some other intersting simulations under development- check them out at http://www.breakawayltd.com/

As per the website, I applied to get a copy of the software and got the following reply-

"Thank you for your recent request for the Incident Commander Software. Unfortunately, due to current NIJ policy we are unable to distribute Incident Commander outside of the United States. If, however, the policy changes, we will forward the Incident Commander Software CD to you.

Again, thank you for your inquiry. Please let us know if there is anything else we can help you with."

Very disappointing....
