Joe Green Inspector (Manager: Emergency Management)

A policy approach New Zealand Police as a SAR coordinating authority do not support the inclusion of 'probability of detection' as a mathematical equation in the Formal Search Planning Guidelines for land SAR. Existing Police policy did not include ‘probability of detection’. A policy change would have been necessary (approved by Executive). Operations Group decided not to seek such a policy change.

Probability of detection Defined as "the probability that the specific sensor (searcher) moving in the way they did, would find the specified object, given that the object is in the area and visible". It is translated for land searches as "if there were 100 clues in the area you searched, how many do you think you would have found". From this a % is derived. Based on the object being searched for being in the area. If it isn't in the area it of course cannot be found and probability of detection as a mathematical equation is totally meaningless.

Doubt as to validity as a mathematical equation This doubt is exacerbated when the math equation is used to determine some sort of "probability of success" - the % that a search is likely to have been successful (if the object were in the area). Flawed math, described as "highly doubtful statistically" with an outcome of questionable validity in the land search environment. Has the potential to put Police, as a SAR coordinating authority at risk.

The research e.g. Cibola SAR "the standard land SAR meaning is subjective and essentially meaningless from a mathematical stand point and useless in planning” and "bears little relation to the actual probability of finding the object". (

However: This is not to say that the controller of a search should not interview and debrief field teams to determine how thoroughly they searched. Young and Wehbring, the authors of Urban Search, use the term "probability of detection" in this way.
