Abstract
In the paper, the authors presented the concept and elements of implementation of the subsystem to support the training process of operators of the anti-crisis system. It was made in the form of emulators of hazard monitoring systems for the needs of an IT system supporting the analysis of threats in the form of CBRN (Chemical, Biological, Radiation, Nuclear) contamination, forecasting their effects and alerting the population (WAZkA).
The genesis of building the emulator subsystem is the need to provide a tool to support the training process of people involved in the activities of the National System of Detection of Contamination and Alarming (KSWSiA) in Poland. However, the emulators designed in this way can also be used as a tool to support the development of emergency procedures.
Emulators were proposed as IT tools. A constructive simulation was chosen as the emulation method, but reduced to a simple, determined data delivery in accordance with the previously prepared scenario.
