The introductory part describes the functioning of the Rescue Unit, from its history and organizational structure to its operational activities. It then provides an overview and description of the individual types of earthmoving machinery currently used by the unit, including their technical specifications and their specific roles during emergency operations. Another part of the thesis focuses on the deployment of earthmoving machinery across the individual dislocation sites of the Rescue Unit. It subsequently examines statistical data on the deployment of individual machines used during extraordinary events. In the conclusion, possible options for expanding and modernizing the current fleet of equipment are proposed, taking into account the operational needs of emergency response activities.
