Abstract
This paper opens up a planned series of articles on the use of robotic groups for rescue of people in distress in marine conditions. Rescuing people in distress through autonomous means is a very difficult problem. The paper contains initial considerations on this matter. Here the solution of the problem is solved with the help of the grouping of rescue robots. The general principles of grouping, dividing it into subgroups with different functional content are considered.

Key words
Robot, rescue, rescue mission, navigation, localization, mapping.
