The US maritime ports are vital multi-use facilities both for commercial and military transportation activities and their safety and security is essential to the nation's economic well-being; it is, therefore, critical to have the ability to conduct comprehensive safety and security analysis of the seaports. Approximately 95 percent of our nation's trade, valued at nearly $1 trillion, enters or leaves our 361 seaports annually. A key analysis tool for safety and security is advanced simulation technology that depicts (in four dimensions: 4-D) the air-land-seaport access and potential vulnerabilities in a virtual real-time format. This technology allows for the development of surface and underwater scenes in order to evaluate incident response training, conduct tabletop exercises, train management personnel and more effectively introduce transportation security systems.
