Abstract: A system for providing real-time or near real-time situational awareness for a structure includes a database module for storing structural information associated with the structure. The system includes a situational awareness module for gathering situational awareness information associated with the structure. The system includes a three-dimensional (3-D) rendering module in communication with the database module and the situational awareness module for rendering a 3-D virtual model of the structure utilizing the structural information associated with the structure, and for integrating into the 3-D virtual model the situational awareness information associated with the structure. The system includes a graphical user interface module in communication with the 3-D rendering module for displaying to a user the 3-D virtual model of the structure integrating the situational awareness information associated with the structure.
