Abstract
The article focuses on the assessment and evaluation of the passability in densely populated parts of cities with multi-storey housing estates, in terms of the operation of the integrated rescue system (IRS) in the Czech Republic. The aim of the research is to minimize the arrival times to conduct the intervention as efficiently as possible. The presented problem is caused by unsystematic development of housing estates and the emergence of secondary problems in the form of inability to reach the place of intervention by the larger IRS vehicles. The vision presented in this document presents a systematic approach to improve the serviceability of individual blocks of flats. The main aim is to ensure passability, even for the largest equipment, such as fire engine ladders. Detailed mapping of the selected sites by drones, construction of their digital model, and subsequent virtual verification of the passability by specific vehicle models on identified access roads was performed. The results obtained by this procedure can then be implemented in the navigation of the fire safety forces and facilitate their arrival at the site of intervention. At the end, specific ways are presented in which the whole system can be modified to be able to intuitively change and choose individual access routes in real time, based on the current situation in the area.
Highlights
The resilience of each city is determined by the level of risk management or the management of potential critical situations
If we look at the housing estate as a system, it is possible to notice its gradual and continuous development, which in many aspects can be seen as a positive change, and in many aspects as a negative one
While the methodological procedures applied in the previous chapter can be modified to achieve a direct response to the actual situation in the locality, the practical implementation is limited in several ways
Summary
The resilience of each city is determined by the level of risk management or the management of potential critical situations. One of the most important aspects of any city is the provision of transport infrastructure for the operation of the IRS. This involves ensuring accessibility in densely populated areas of the city with high-rise prefabricated housing [1]. Architectural, and technical point of view, the largest problems are presented by the largerscale housing estates. These were built mainly in the 1970s and 1980s and were almost exclusively constructed with prefabricated apartment buildings. Such large housing estates pose a number of traffic and transport challenges that are not currently thoroughly solved [1]
