Disasters are unpredictable. Natural disasters such as earthquake, flood, landslide or
man-made disaster such as fire, road accident can affect our life anytime. Many
casualties occur during the disaster on the absence of preparedness and prevention
measure. Lack of evacuation routes and the timely response to the injured people to
the nearby emergency services is one of the main sources for a large number of
casualties. Proper response operations must be carried out, as a slight delay can risk
the lives of citizens. Since disaster cannot be mitigated, preventive measures before
and after the disaster are important. Spatial data play a significant role in emergency
management: preparedness, response, recovery, and mitigation. A suitable network
analysis aids to a smooth network and especially helps during a disaster.
In this paper, Castellon network dataset is developed using validated Voluntary
Geographic Information. It is developed to find the fastest route to the emergency
services, especially during or after the occurrence of a disaster. Data quality assurance
is performed using positional, attribute and network length check to produce efficient
results. The fastest and safest route to and from the emergency services are recognized
to plan safety measure during the occurrence of a disaster. The evaluation of the
network by participants provides insight into the quality and use of the network in a
disaster scenario. It also reveals that VGI can be used further in the preparation of a
disaster prevention system for various cities. [-]
