Evacuation Service Areas and Emergency Routes
This week we focused on the Network Analyst extension of ArcGIS. Using point features and the roads feature class we prepared last week, I created two routes to aid in the evacuation of a hospital and three routes to aid in the delivery of emergency supplies to storm shelters. The road network and shelter feature points were also used to create Evacuation Service Areas. This data can be used to create information pamphlets for the public before a storm and driving directions for emergency workers before, during and after a storm.
