Transportation Planning for Floods - Phase I
In the first year of this project, the research team was able to develop a good understanding of how floods impact travel times and roads in Iowa. The analysis allows the team to understand what areas will be more or less accessible after floods, which can help in making decisions for establishing evacuation centers and routing people outside the flood zone. The team developed cyber tools and interfaces to recommend new routes in a flooding situation and used this tool to understand the impact of floods.
