SARX is a ground search and rescue search planning and management tool designed to quickly plan and execute a search for a lost subject. SARX is a suite of custom tools built upon ESRI's ArcGIS Desktop Explorer (AGX), with the goal of providing fast and effective search management, particularly within the first operational period of a search.

Most importantly, SARX is completely free!

SARX contains all of the features built into  ArcGIS Desktop Explorer as well as the following SAR-specific tools:

  • Quickly create a set of “statistical distance travelled” rings based using any relevant statistical dataset (e.g. Koester, Hill);
  • Tools to easily download and upload track and waypoint data to/from virtually any Garmin GPS, as well as edit those tracks;
  • Simple single and multi-page map printing capability;
  • Quickly add SAR specific planning and search management points on the map by either clicking on the map or providing coordinates in MGRS, UTM, decimal degrees, degrees decimal minutes, or degrees-minutes-seconds;
  • Capability to use both online and offline maps as well as standard ESRI map data formats to provide the greatest flexibility in displaying GIS data.
