Simulation should represent flood evacuation for the coast or ashore place and people who lives there. In simulation there will be (imaginary) town created. The town will be on the coast. In the town, there would be paths, which either lead to some shelter or out of the flood area (maybe hill or something like safe distance from the flood). People (agents) can walk on those paths. Flood will come and the rising water will be flooding the city gradually, meanwhile the people will be running from the flood to the nearest shelters or out of the flood area, or dying.

Assignment

  • Project Name: Flood evacuation
  • Author: Kristýna Gubišová
  • Software used: NetLogo

Object

Finding the optimal number of shelters with optimal capacity to keep the number of residents safety.

Global variables

  • Number of evacuated people
  • Number of shelters
  • Shelters capacity
  • Frequency of the flood(optional? but they have to know how often it comes right?)

Outcome

Simulation should determine the shortest way to the shelter or out of the flood area and how many shelters should be available in flood area to keep residents safety. The main goal is keep all people alive.

Sounds interesting, but I would need to have elaborated it into a greater detail. E.g. would you simulate a particular area? How should the simulation look like? Please, provide more details and your idea, how do you plan to proceed. I believe this idea is something worth implementation. Tomáš 00:14, 20 December 2014 (CET)

All right. I still see two problems. First, how you will represent the elevation of terrain (necessary for simulating the rising water). Second, what will be the scale of the model (and how many agents you will use). It is often a problem that scales of agents and the environment are different (agents are usually much bigger than they should be in comparison to the terrain). Perhaps some sketches could be helpful. Tomáš 22:29, 23 December 2014 (CET)
