A search apparatus and related method facilitate the final stage of a search for a buried person carrying a transmitter. When the searcher is in the close vicinity of the buried transmitter, the search enters a point-localization phase where the apparatus displays a representation of the current target distance from the apparatus to the buried transmitter as well as a representation of a previously-stored value for the target distance. By comparing the current distance to the previously-stored distance, the searcher can readily see whether the apparatus is getting closer to the buried transmitter or further away. Preferably, graphic symbols are displayed to represent the current distance and the previously-stored distance. The display can also provide a representation of whether the current distance is greater than or less than an immediately preceding distance that has been stored.
Appareil de recherche et méthode connexe facilitant l'étape finale de la recherche d'une personne ensevelie munie d'un émetteur. Lorsque le secouriste est près de l'émetteur enseveli, la recherche entre dans une phase de localisation fine pendant laquelle l'appareil affiche la distance actuelle entre l'appareil et l'émetteur enseveli ainsi qu'une valeur précédemment stockée de cette distance. En comparant la distance actuelle à la distance stockée précédemment, le secouriste peut facilement déterminer si l'appareil se rapproche ou s'éloigne de l'émetteur enseveli. De préférence, des symboles graphiques affichés représentent la distance actuelle et la distance stockée précédemment. Le dispositif d'affichage peut aussi préciser si la distance actuelle est supérieure ou inférieure à la dernière distance ayant été stockée.
