Emergency Operations Simulation (EOS)
Emergency Operations Simulation (EOS) : An exercise meant "to inform and train key officials and department heads in emergency operations?.EOS is an experience which motivates. Few local executives undergo it without resolving that civil preparedness needs more of their attention, or more funds, better planning, or additional equipment and personnel. EOS also provides a test of existing facilities - it can demonstrate to top officials and budget-makers whether an EOC or emergency plans are equal to the potential disasters for which they are designed. In on on-site assistance project, an EOS may be used to evaluate a community's resources, pinpoint its deficiencies, or show the steps needed to remove them" (DCPA, Foresight, DCPA Annual Report FY73, 1974, p. 13)
