Geospatial modeling of the location of bomb shelters in residential areas of the city

Abstract

Abstract The purpose of the article is to determine the optimal placement of the bomb shelter in the existing urban development. To achieve this goal, the authors used geoinformation systems. The authors set the task of processing topographic and geodetic data and related information. The authors implemented the task employing spatial analysis using existing ArcGis software modules. The use of the geoinformation system in the article makes it possible to significantly increase the speed of information processing than when using traditional methods. The use of the geoinformation system by the authors allows the creation of geodatabases with all the necessary attribute information. The authors researched the example of 522 micro-districts of the Saltivsky residential area of Kharkiv. The intellectual analysis of the existing information was carried out in this work using the geostatistical method for data transformation from a discrete to a continuous representation. In the article, the authors solved the task of determining the location of civil protection facilities using many factors and requirements. Visualization of the dangerous zones of the explosion of building debris during destruction, determination of the optimal route of movement of the population to the bomb shelter, and determination of the time required for this carried out. The obtained results, presented in the form of an algorithm, will make it possible to use the proposed sequence of actions to solve similar problems in the future. The authors developed an algorithm that significantly reduces the time for processing topographic and geodetic data and related information and solves the task of determining the location of civil protection facilities using many factors and requirements.
