Rescue coordination centre

A Joint Rescue Co-ordination Centre (JRCC) is a special type of RCC that is often operated by personnel from multiple military services, civilian services, or a combination of military and/or civilian services. A JRCC will oversee SAR operations for a variety of environments, both on land and at sea. A Maritime Rescue Coordination Centre (MRCC) is a type of RCC dedicated exclusively to organising search and rescue in a maritime environment. A Maritime Rescue Sub-Centre (MRSC) is a special type of RCC which operates almost identically to an MRCC but on a smaller scale, usually dictated by a specific environment within which it operates. An MRSC acts as a satellite center to an MRCC or JRCC and is operated to handle the workload for a particular geographic area within the SRR. ==Applications==
