Situation Awareness (SA) is critical in various domains, particularly in high-stakes environments like aviation, healthcare, and emergency response. It is subdivided into 3 levels of "awareness":

SA is vital to individual performance, and team SA is critical to good team performance. Team members may have different subgoals in a given trauma resuscitation. **Team SA can be subdivided into 2 types: (1) shared SA, in which team members possess the same SA and (2) complimentary SA, which represents unique, specialty-specific SA necessary for good team performance** [ref id.] (Fig. 1). **Actionable SA** is  realized by integrating SA-support with decision-support functionalities, so that actions can be initiated and guided efficiently and effectively (e.g., see ASSISTANCE's Chemical Hazard module that displays information about gas distributions, its current and predicted future states , with explicit affordances to set safe approach and evacuation routes [2].

There is also a version (Team SAGAT) for assessing shared situation awareness [3-5].
