Assessing city road network vulnerability to wildfires
Our scalable, cloud-based software solution leverages open data and SUMO to simulate various wildfire migration scenarios and identify cities with insufficient roadway capacity for effective evacuation
Network Connectivity Analysis
Calculates city road network connectivity measures including :
Performs agent-based evacuation simulations incorporating various degrees of road closures and fire progression models
Determines the number of isolated vehicles and estimates evacuation time
Network Vulnerability Comparison
Uses network measures and simulation results to compare network vulnerability among cities with other city-specific characteristics such as population, demographics, and roadway density.
Provides a comparative summary of cities to help authorities and entities identify areas most vulnerable to wildifires and prioritize action plans
