Themis

Themis is primarily employed in maritime and aeronautical Search and rescue (SAR) operations when there is a need to predict the drift of objects or people at sea to locate them efficiently. It is used in scenarios like: Distress Signals: When a vessel, aircraft, or person has gone missing, and their last known position needs to be analysed.

There are circumstances whereby the data set may not be as reliable as other areas, for example under a bridge or within a harbour whereby variables can skew the data set. Operators are allowed to use local judgement on search parameters but it has to be justified and documented.

The data set is provided to us by the Met Office. We would be unable to define what data is capture to create these data sets
