Population dynamics visualization system for management of airborne biochemical agents attacks

Published: 18 March 2005 Publication History

Abstract

One major problem that faces the evacuation of cities attacked with airborne biological and chemical agents is an effective coordination and analysis of information from multiple sources. Examples of relevant data resources include point of airborne agent attack, wind speed and direction, population density and its dynamics as time progresses, traffic pattern of roadways [1], and topology of the affected city. This research is concerned with developing an effective visualization system for the evacuation of cities attacked with airborne biological and chemical agents. The specific problem that this section of the project is aimed at solving is informative data visualization on population distribution in conjunction with other factors that will facilitate a successful evacuation.
