US 2022/0090927 A1 · Multi-Hazard Spatio-Temporal Zone-Based Evacuation Management Platform

Abstract

Systems and methods providing for zone-based evacuation management. The systems and methods involve allowing a user to select zones from a user interface. The zones properties may be modified by the user. The user may create evacuation pre-plans for selected zones for different types of incidents. Different scenarios may be used in the creation of the plan. The scenarios may use simulation models to determine the affected zones and the rate of spread of the incident. The systems and methods may also generate and send notifications and alerts to the people residing within the affected zones as well as police departments and fire departments with jurisdiction over the affected areas.

Claims20

Dependent claims

A system for zone-based evacuation management comprising one or more processors, and a non-transitory computer-readable medium including one or more sequences of instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the system to perform operations comprising:

displaying, via a user interface, a map of a geographical area, the geographical area having multiple predefined contiguous zones, wherein a zone defines an area of the map having geographic boundaries, wherein the map displays a road network and multiple building structures, and wherein the user interface is configured for receiving a selection of one or more of the predefined contiguous zones, and wherein the user interface is configured for modifying one or more attributes associated with a particular zone.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
