ABSTRACT This paper describes the development of TACID, a computer-based data base system for use by on-scene commanders and technical advisors at the scene of an oil spill. The system uses an MS-DOS-based lap-top computer, a readily available data base program, and a menu-driven selection process. All the environmental and response data for a geographic area are recorded on a number of 3.5-inch rugged computer discs, and an operating program has been written to allow users to select the appropriate disc. The computer serves both as a retrieval program and as an arithmetic processor. The use of TACID greatly enhances the capabilities of emergency response commanders and their technical advisors to deal with an oil spill on the scene.
