Abstract

This paper explains attributes that can affect people's behavior in evacuation decision-making from Mount Merapi eruption, starting from pre-evacuation phase, vehicle selection phase, to evacuation route selection phase to reach a safe point. These factors were obtained through previous research, relevant to the characteristics of communities around Mount Merapi in facing an emergency evacuation from Mount Merapi eruption. Located in the Special Region of Yogyakarta, Indonesia, Mount Merapi is one of the most active volcanoes in the world which has a unique type of eruption and culture of surrounding communities. In the last stage, this paper also provides guidelines for analysis methods which can be used to solve emergency evacuation problems in order to minimize victims.
