ARGOS is a Decision Support System (DSS) for crisis and emergency management for incidents with chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear (CBRN) releases.
ARGOS improves situation awareness, facilitates decision support, and information sharing among the emergency response organizations.
Colours are used to express the concentration, contamination, time-of-arrival, trajectories, doses or inhalation, and ISO curves can display important threshold levels.
The current member countries of the ARGOS User Group are (January 2017): Australia, Brazil, Canada, Denmark, Estonia, Germany, Ireland, Japan, Latvia, Lithuania, Norway, Poland, Singapore, Sweden, Ukraine and United Kingdom.
The ARGOS User Group arranges bi-annual meetings where all members have equal opportunities to influence the development of the system.
