1 Critical feature is realtime, "come as you are" adaptive linked computers and people
2 Judgement support extends decision support into an "exploratorium" scenario as crises tend to be unexpected
3 Major need to search community and government databases for immediate information on resource location and availability etc. Metadata(summaries) essential
4 Collaboration between commander in field , specialized anchor desks (domain experts) and those in field.
5 User Interface essential as user will be tired and searching unfamiliar data
6 Geographical Information Systems and browsing multiple video sources (InfoVision again) will be critical as judgements will depend critically on spatial data.
