| Abstract | In the eventuality of a dike-break flood, evacuation is regarded as the primary solution for disaster mitigation and it usually needs to be performed in a quick yet orderly manner. In order to have a good response to such emergency situation, it is necessary to prepare a feasible evacuation plan and carry out related analysis of it. Based on this purpose, this paper presents a methodology of emergency evacuation planning for dike-break flood. Aiming to suit the specialty of certain dike-break flood condition, we conducted related data analysis and processing such as flood simulation in MIKE, and impassable flooded roads extraction in ArcGIS. An evacuation model is established, and successive approximation algorithm is applied to obtain a feasible optimized evacuation scheme in the model. Furthermore, based on this methodology, a geographical information system-based decision support system for study area is developed. By using it, decision-makers can acquire reliable situational information of flood evolution, feasible routes, road congestions and high-risk groups. Thus, they can mobilize necessary resources in a timely manner to coordinate an effective emergency response. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
