Evacuation Planning: Motivation No effective evacuation planning Traffic congestions on all highways Great confusions and chaos Hurricane Andrew Florida and Louisiana, 1992 "We packed up Morgan City residents to evacuate in the a.m. on the day that Andrew hit coastal Louisiana, but in early afternoon the majority came back home. The traffic was so bad that they couldn't get through Lafayette." Mayor Tim Mott, Morgan City, Louisiana ( http://i49south.com/hurricane.htm ) ( National Weather Services) Hurricane Katrina Gulf Coast, 2005 Hurricane Katrina evacuees from New Orleans clog Interstate 10. Hurricane Evacuation Route Signs ( news.yahoo.com) ( National Weather Services)
Evacuation Planning: A Real Scenario Experiment Result Total evacuation time: - Existing Plan: 268 min. - New Plan: 162 min. Monticello Power Plant Source cities Destination Routes used only by old plan Routes used only by result plan of capacity constrained routing Routes used by both plans Congestion is likely in old plan near evacuation destination due to capacity constraints. Our plan has richer routes near destination to reduce congestion and total evacuation time. Twin Cities
Evacuation Planning: Contraflow Contraflow increases capacity by reversing the direction of roads. NP-complete, combinatorial optimization problem. Results of Flip High flow Edge First (FHFE) Heuristic: 38% Reduced Evacuation Time
Spatial Data Mining: Motivation Nest locations Distance to open water Vegetation durability Water depth
