Usecase sample: cover locations - emergency

[Bernd Welter]

Hi there,

these days I've been asked whether and how PTV developer components support the following scenario. Here's a theoretical description and sample

Given input data:

• set of private households with coordinates and number of inhabitants
• set of firebrigade stations with coordinates
• some definition of "household is close enough to at least one fire brigade" (e.g. driving period < 300 secs)

Here's what I did:

Dummy set of households somewhere in Baden-Wü.

The fire brigades in all Ba-Wü.

I used xCluster2.coverLocations to check whether it is possible to reach at least 65% of the inhabitants within less than 240secs

and here's the result with a traveltime of 360 secs

Red starts indicate that the location is outside the required horizon

This is just a dummy based on airline - no real data and routing applied.
Of course we are able to define a "emergency vehicle routing" DIMA for better quality.

Best regards,
Bernd
