Course MF1643-2 Driving People or Groups in Caving

- Analyze cartographic resources and sources, both in traditional physical supports and in digital supports adapted to new technologies, and identification as well as in digital supports adapted to new technologies, and identify the characteristics, relief and nature of the terrain represented and recognize the routes and possibilities of transit on foot, especially in low and medium mountain terrain. - Analyze the topographic, geological and biological characteristics of a given area and identify the degree of vulnerability of its natural environment based on its classification as a protected or unprotected space, to relate the critical aspects of deterioration of said environment with the practice of sports-recreational activities. - Interpret meteorological information to predict climatic conditions and their possible evolution, from sources of information of different natures adapted to new technologies or derived from direct observation of the natural environment, and anticipate adverse situations that may occur by taking the necessary measures to adapt the sports-recreational activity, canceling it if necessary. - Apply orientation techniques in the natural environment of traditional use, specific to new technologies or derived from the interpretation of fortune resources, using, in accordance with the available means and resources, instruments, equipment, cartographic sources and/or natural clues. - Identify the characteristics of the users requesting the service by determining their level of motor ability, their level of physical condition and their interests, motivations and degree of personal autonomy based on their gender and age, in relation to the practice of caving activities in underground cavities of up to class five. - Collect information on the geographical space where the driving activity will be carried out in underground cavities of up to class five in relation to its topographic and environmental characteristics, the specific regulations related to the practice of sports-recreational activities that may be applied and its access and movement possibilities according to the characteristics of the activity to be carried out. - Describe and carry out the diagnostic analysis of the intervention context, collecting, processing and integrating the different types of information obtained to specify the itinerary in underground cavities of up to class five and establish the development of all direct and complementary activities that will be carried out in the development of the requested activity. - Establish the processes and periodicity for the qualitative and quantitative evaluation of the objectives established in the design of a driving activity in underground cavities of up to class five. - Apply evaluation techniques and procedures in caving driving activities to identify the parameters that express the quality and safety of the service, paying special attention to the degree of satisfaction of all participants and establish, based on the information obtained, the correction and adaptation measures for this type of activity in the design of future driving activities in underground cavities of up to class five. - Prepare the auxiliary means and supervise the availability and correct state of use of the equipment and materials, making the necessary adaptations according to the characteristics and needs of both the participants and the activities to be carried out, in accordance with the objectives and protocols established in the reference program. - Apply reception, farewell and interaction strategies with participants in caving driving activities and use different types of communication adapted to their needs and characteristics. - Apply group dynamics techniques and promote the necessary relationships between its members, to create an optimal climate of coexistence that ensures the quality of the service and the satisfaction of each of the participants in the development of a caving driving program. - Apply basic instruction strategies in the use of specific materials and progression techniques in caving to be able to carry out the itinerary planned in the reference program. - Guide the group of users based on their characteristics, the difficulties and conditions of the underground environment, the established program and the available resources, and manage simple communication devices for their use, guaranteeing at all times the safety conditions of the group. - Direct, energize and participate in different types of recreational-leisure activities and awareness-raising and knowledge of the environment, appropriately applying the recreational methodology and adapting to different objectives, characteristics, interests and/or needs of the participants and the environment in which to develop. - Direct the relief and rescue maneuvers to the group of users, when it is impossible to receive rapid professional outside help depending on the type of accident, the place where it happened and the available resources, to guarantee maximum effectiveness in reestablishing minimum safety conditions. - Analyze and participate in training programs that fit a given objective of physical and technical maintenance of the motor skills of progression in caving, making a combined use of sports facilities, urban parks and natural caving environments.
