In public safety, geography plays a significant role. One of the most important front-line elements of public safety is an efficient emergency transport and care system. The capacity to access and process information rapidly and organize resources where needed can be critically important in an emergency situation. Information about the locality of an event or a disaster is often vital in knowing how to respond. A significant operation for the handling of emergency incidents is the routing of ambulances to incident sites and then to the closest appropriate hospitals [1]. One of important steps to surviving in an emergency is a quick response time [3].

A geographic information system application for ambulance routing services : a prototype

Using geographic information systems in analysing the pattern of crime incidents and the relationship between landuse and incidents
Akpınar, Ebru; Pınarcıoğlu, Mehmet Melih; Department of Geodetic and Geographical Information Technologies (2005)
The location where crime events occur is an important factor in the analysis of crime. It is not only important where a crime incident takes place but also the characteristics of those places and the environment in which incident occurs. Thus, examination of spatial data such as street networks, parcel information, school locations, commercial and residential zoning, is imperative for effective crime analysis, crime prevention and police activities. Using variables, relating to five incident types as burgla...
A Parallel Algorithm for UAV Flight Route Planning on GPU
Sanci, Seckin; İşler, Veysi (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2011-12-01)
Aerial surveillance missions require a geographical region known as the area of interest to be inspected. The route that the aerial reconnaissance vehicle will follow is known as the flight route. Flight route planning operation has to be done before the actual mission is executed. A flight route may consist of hundreds of pre-defined geographical positions called waypoints. The optimal flight route planning manages to find a tour passing through all of the waypoints by covering the minimum possible distanc...
A SOAP-Based Social Traffic Network System for Smart Phone Users
Peker, Serhat; Gurbuz, Ozge; Taşkaya Temizel, Tuğba (2014-06-25)
Road traffic congestions are one of the major problems in highly populated cities. In the recent years, GPS based solutions have become popular since people are able to see the traffic flow on streets instantaneously. However such systems are lack of intelligent reasoning regarding the traffic problems. As a result, one cannot anticipate the traffic slowdown duration and overall impact. This study proposes a social network based solution using web services where people will be able to share latest traffic i...
A Genetic algorithm for healthcare facility location problem
İşbilir, Melike; Bayındır, Zeynep Pelin; İyigün, Cem; Department of Industrial Engineering (2016)
In this study, we consider the problem of locating emergency healthcare facilities in urban areas. Upon emergency occurrence, patients are directed to any one of the emergency centers with a likelihood that depends on the travel time. Moreover, the survival, that represents the severity of the consequences of the emergency situation, is also probabilistic and is a function of the travel time. A mathematical model is constructed under the objective of maximizing expected number of survivors while determining...
