Group / Large Area Seach Kit

RIT's Group Search Kit makes large area search and RIT team operations a safer task. The standard kit is set up for a four person team and provides a lifeline to the outside for each member. For searching a large area the optional marker system of knots and rings assists in performing a systematic search and prevents duplication of search areas. The knot and ring system assures team members of their location and exit direction. RIT operations are also supported with this system. While searching for one of our own we have a tendency to search harder and longer than normal. Each RIT team member is not only connected to the outside, but the system also leads secondary RIT teams to their location for assistance and/or supplies.

I like how te fire fighters in this video keep the main line rope tight and also the method for anchoring the rope outside ensures the door will not close on them while inside. Large area search though in itself is dangerous with or without a search rope.The best and most effective method for searhing a large area is to ventilate and increase visibility to speed up the seach process so that we are not searching large open structure on our hands and knees.
