E-MAPS
Alternate Evacuation Routes (Escape Route Modeling)

E-MAPS provides the ability to rapidly create alternate evacuation routes during an emergency event which impacts the availability of the existing evacuation routes.

In the following example, the area on the left represents the impact zone of an incident. The impact zone affects a section of an Interstate and a portion of a state evacuation route.


Incident Impact Zone	New Evacuation Routes around the impact zone

The graphic on the right displays a new set of alternate evacuation routes created (shown with red arrows). The new routes allow the evacuation of the area considering the unavailability of the road network inside the impact zone.

You can review a video clip of E-MAPS's evacuation routing capability by clicking the following link. (Requires Flash 6 and a high speed Internet connection)

Please note: In order to make the clips viewable over the internet, the resolution and number of available colors was restricted.
