Abstract

Method and apparatus for responding to an emergency using orienteering methods. An Augmented Virtual Model (AVM) may assist in determining the nature of the emergency and a path to be taken by an emergency responder. By referencing the AVM on a smart device, such as one located in the visor of a firefighter, the emergency responder can quickly and easily locate a cause of the emergency and address it, as well as rescue lives endangered by the emergency.
