Search and rescue (SAR) plan decides the result of SAR activity, and relates with the safety of life and property at sea. To improve the efficiency and standard of SAR, and give the SAR officer support to make better decisions, expert system (ES) is been researched by this paper, and the ES based on fuzzy rules for maritime SAR is proposed. Firstly, the structure of ES based on fuzzy rules for SAR is designed. Secondly, we have researched SAR knowledge acquisition and knowledge representation, chosen five ways to acquire SAR knowledge. At last, we designed the inference engine of ES for SAR, and introduced it in an example.
