Abstract

In this research, involving local people's concerns in the decision on the evacuation route, a dynamic route deci- sion model is proposed by explicitly considering group evacuation, landmarks & evacuation signs, and familiarity with the local environment. A spatial relationship-dependent approach is used to measure the difference in resi- dents regarding local knowledge. To understand the people's decision-making process for evacuation routes, a survey was conducted with members of the Zonta Club in Japan. Based on the survey, a prototype version of a multi-agent simulation (MAS) system is developed for the case area, Nagata Ward, Kobe.
