Evacuation simulation supported by 3D visualization and animation. Prepared by: Gustavo García KanishkChaturvedi
Introduction • Evacuations are needed in many emergency situations • Evacuation plans help to ensure effectiveness in the actions performed during the evacuation • Tools for evacuation planning should provide user-friendly interface • New technologies as 3D Visualization and animation can be useful
Objective • Objective • Design a web tool to simulate evacuations by combining 3D visualization and animation. • Expected outcomes • Description of the characteristics of the system • Basic prototype of the system
Methodology • Evaluate the needs of UN Peace Keeping missions in evacuation planning • Design of the interface and simulation workflow • Develop the application to be run on web browser • Run the simulation to check if it behaves as expected
Discussion • High loading time due to usually large 3D datasets, but performs well once loaded • Animation provides a natural way to represent dynamics on evacuations • Evacuation planning can be supported by 3D visualization and animation running in a web environment
