Description
The inventors have developed an "all hazards" disaster modeling system that seamlessly integrates ArcGIS 9.2 Rockwell Automation's Arena discrete event simulation and a control interface that mirrors an emergency operations center. Each component informs the others continuously of decisions, status changes, and other situational variables that have changed as the event(s) unfold. Dynamic Discrete Disaster Decision Simulation System (D4S2) provides a circumstance independent laboratory for testing how the type and scale of an event, situation variables and command decisions affect responders' efficiency and effectiveness in dealing with disasters.
