Rear Adm. Dean Lee signs a memorandum for Coast Guard Search and Rescue Visual Analytics accreditation at Coast Guard Headquarters in Washington, D.C., April 22, 2013. CGSARVA presents a risk analysis system that enables the interactive visualization, analysis, and assessment of SAR missions completed by each Coast Guard station. The system enables the interactive analysis of trends, patterns, anomalies, and distribution of cases and associated stories. Additionally, this assessment tool enables the determination of potential increase or decrease in risk with a reallocation of a resource, as well as known increases or decreases in the response time.
