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 :
  • - Network redundancy
    - Network complexity
    - Network connectivity
Network Vulnerability Evaluation
  • 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
